Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What was the bridge, that Jermayan and Ancaladar created to cross the Angarussa River, made of?

Answer: stone

The bridge needed to be strong enough for cavalry and heavy carts to cross, which leaves out ice. In the end, the bridge was made of stone and looked "intrusive."

2. What Elemental Creature did Cilarnen summon?

Answer: Salamander

Cilarnen wasn't sure if the spell was going to work, but in the end, he managed to gain all of the Elemental's power, which was very useful later in the book.

3. What two words did King Andoreniel utter when Idalia questioned him during his recovery?

Answer: Tokens, Council Chambers

Idalia wanted to know how to summon all of the ancient alliances so she asked Andoreniel, who was too weak from the Shadow's Kiss to make a full response.

4. Why does Idalia not accept Jermayan's Betrothel Pendant?

Answer: She has information she is not ready to reveal to Jermayan

Idalia doesn't want to accept the proposal yet, because then she will be bonded to him and he might find out her mage price, which is her death.

5. How many banners did Idalia and Jermayan find in the Council Chamber?

Answer: 13

The thirteen banners represented the thirteen alliances among the Peoples of the Light. This included the yellow banner, representing Armethalieh.

6. The Crystal Spiders told Vestakia that the last Shadowed Elf enclave was in the south.

Answer: false

Since the Crystal Spiders have no sense of direction, they could not have told or imagined to Vestakia that the last enclave was in the south. Vestakia figured this out through her visions of her father's memories.

7. Which of these best describes what happened to Armethalieh's banner?

Answer: burst into flames

The banner burst into flame because the city was Tainted. As the book says, it "continued to burn, even in the pool of water, until every scrap of it was utterly consumed."

8. According to the book, what type of tea is Kellen's favorite?

Answer: Armethaliehan Black

This isn't an important piece of information, but it does say toward the begining of the story that this is his favorite tea.

9. Who says this, "By the Eternal Light. It's worked. I called it here. And now it's going to kill me"?

Answer: Cilarnen

This was when Cilarnen was trying to summon Elementals so he could gain their power for spells.

10. The only reason Idalia sacrificed her life was to save her father and prevent "He Who Is" from entering the world.

Answer: false

Idalia was, in a way, forced to sacrifice her life because of a mage price she agreed to in a previous book in the "Obsidian" trilogy.
The main reason she sacrificed her life was because she had to.
Thank you for taking my quiz and I would GREATLY appreciated it if you would RATE this quiz.
