Korah threw back his head and laughed. “Honesty? What a rare quality.” Quirking a gold and silver eyebrow, he asked with dark humor, “Shall I kill her for you?”

Creating family members is both challenging and fun. I try to use the images in my head and the descriptions from the books. It’s noted in the text that many in the Alanthian royal family resemble one another, so using similar features brings this intriguing cast to life.

Do they look like you imagined? Let me know! I would love to hear from you.
