total word count : 2935
total page count : 5
Characters introduced :
+ Asher Caoran, knight banneret
+ Eban, wizard
- Sir Darach, commander
Characters mentioned :
Sir Gorsh, knight bachelor to Sir Asher, suggested to take command of Asher's men
Sheena NicCuthaig (cuckoo's daughter) - Sir Asher's "so-called" sister. Source of enmity between he and Eban.
===
Eban is annoying, supercilious, caustic and insulting. I think Paula would like him very much. I don't know what he looks like yet, I haven't described him in the story. I would like him to be a young Severus Snape, but he may end up being more of a young Alan Rickman (these are NOT the same).
Asher Caoran is developing a lot younger and more attractive than intended. He is slender - described as appearing to be a stripling beside Sir Darach.
Sir Darach is basically a throw-away character, so why did I spend more time describing him than the other two men in the scene.
