Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is Harry's real name?

Answer: Angharad

Harry doesn't want to be called by her real name and she only uses Harry. Even her family isn't allowed to call her by her true name!

2. Do Corlath and Harry marry in the end?

Answer: Yes

Yes, in the end Corlath wears her sash, which in old times shows that the two would get married. They get married, and the rest is history!

3. What is the legendary sword that Lady Aerin held?

Answer: The Blue sword

Lady Aerin comes to Harry and shows her things; also when drinking the Meeldtar she sees a battle of herself and her friends (and it wasn't pretty, I can tell you that), which overall tells Corlath that she should be a King's Rider and carry the blue sword.

4. What is the name of Harry's brother?

Answer: Richard

Mostly she calls him Dickie, which he hates because it was his childhood nickname; in the end, however, she starts to call him by his real name.

5. What is Harry's last name?

Answer: Crewe

Her last name is Crewe; by her family rights her adoptive family didn't force their name sake on her, so she gets to keep her last name.

6. What is the name of the folk who live in the trees?

Answer: Filanon

Kentarre is the woman of the Filanaon who helps Harry fight the northerners from taking the lands. The other names are of lands and inanimate objects like Gonturan.

7. What is Harry's horse's name, (in the hill speech)?

Answer: Tsornin

In the hill speech their horse's name would be Tsornin, but in her native tongue it would be Sungold. Also a little fact about hill horses is that they don't have the normal "Gear" that Outlanders would have and they are very smart and well trained.

8. Where must Harry fight to keep the Nothereners from taking her homelands?

Answer: The Madamer gate

The Madamar gate is where finally Harry uses the blue sword to its fullest extent. The others, except for one, are the names of people she meets on her travels that help her understand things she never knew.

9. What do the Hillfolk and The DamarDarianians call each other without knowing it?

Answer: Outlanders

They call each other this because they live in different places and both call each other Outlanders, yet when they're in their lands they call themselves the Homelanders. (ODD)

10. Who is Harry's teacher to help her become a King's Rider?

Answer: Mathin

Mathin is the one who also taught her to speak Hill-speech and trained her for the time when she was to fight and become a King's Rider. She now speaks the Hill-speech fluently on her own, thanks to her friend, and is a very good translator for both the languages of Damar and Hill.
