Answer: Charles Dodgson

In 'The Looking Glass Wars' the reader can see how Alice Liddel befriended Lewis Carroll (aka Charles Dodgson) and gave him the idea for 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' when she spoke of her previous life when she lived as a princess in Wonderland. It then shows how she thought he would write an accurate account of what had really happened to her but that, when she realised how he had changed the details of her previous life, she got upset as she thought it would make her stories seem even more ridiculous. In the story, she didn't speak to him again until her eighteenth birthday.

Answer: Awr

The Awr tribe is located in the northeastern part of Boarderland. It is not exactly clear how the card game "War" came to be, but it is often played by children as it is a very simple game. The object is to gain all the cards in a deck, by "battling" your opponent. The highest card wins the trick, and when players tie, they go to "war", by placing three cards face down, and flipping the top card, and the winner of that will get all the cards in the pot. A computer program played 1,000,000 games, and in those 1,000,000, a sextuple war only happened once!
