Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which fear does Alanna encounter in the very beginning of this book?

Answer: Spiders

A hairy wood spider landed on her glove in the very beginning of the first chapter. When she screamed, it got her thinking about how her friends at the palace would say she was acting like a girl. Alanna knew better than anyone that boys know as much about girls as girls know about boys.

2. To whom did Alanna lose her virginity?

Answer: Jonathon

On these nights, Alanna wondered what would happen if she climbed into bed with Jonathon. She laughed about it to herself, but it sure did happen!

3. Near the end of the book, Alanna told ______ that she was a girl in order to be able to recieve the bath of purification for knighthood.

Answer: Sir Gary

Alanna really didn't want to tell anyone because she figured they'd get mad, but Jon convinced her that Gary woud find it a most amusing jest for Gary to be in on. He thought correctly.

4. On their trip back from the City of the Gods, George says to Alanna in mock atsonishment: "Alanna, the heartless speaking for ______?!

Answer: Love

George said this in response to Alanna remarking that her twin seemed so lonely.

5. Alanna slept with more than one person in this book

Answer: False

Of course she only slept with Jon! ...in this book... ;)

6. The first words that Faithful ever "said" to Alanna were:

Answer: I won't if you won't

After they had settled into Alanna's bedroll, she said to her new pet: "Don't snore."

7. The night Alanna spent out in the woods during the winter, what color did the wild boar glow after it tried to kill her?

Answer: Orange

Duke Roger's orange of course! One of his first open attempts to take Alanna's life...

8. Alanna often went into Corus with ________ disguised in a black wig.

Answer: Mistress Cooper

Alanna figured that she had to learn to be a girl sometime, and there's no time like the present to start.

9. The first time Alanna saw her shield it had her Lioness Rampant symbol on it.

Answer: False

Of course Thom couldn't give her the shield with the Lioness Rampant on it in the formal presentation of the shield! It would be tough to come up with an explanation for why a male knight was getting a female symbol on his sheild! Thom showed Alanna the true symbol on the shield in private later on that night.

10. Which one of Alanna's long-time friends tried to kill her with a practice sword?

Answer: Alex

Of course, it was Alex, though he was, most likely bespelled by Roger to do it.
