Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Okay, here's an easy question to start. Who possesses the more powerful magic, Brin or Jair?

Answer: Brin

Jair's magic can only cause illusions, while Brin's magic can actually alter an object's behavior.

2. Where are Wil and Eretria during the entire story?

Answer: Away on a healing trip

Both Wil and Eretria are Healers. Once every year they go on a sort of pilgrimage to all the surrounding villages to offer their services.

3. Who is Spilk?

Answer: A Gnome Sedt

Spilk is a particularly nasty fellow and he gets what he deserves.

4. What is the name of the Elven Prince who accompanies Jair on his journey?

Answer: Edain Elessedil

He's one of the only Elves mentioned in this book. He is nice for the time he was referred to, but dies in the end.

5. Which member of the company has 'night vision'?

Answer: Helt

Whisper may also have night vision, it's not made clear. Helt possesses this somewhat peculiar ability.

6. What are the names of the grinding holes in the floor of the Caves of Night?

Answer: Procks

These creepy creations are living mouth-like holes in the ground, waiting to consume passers by.

7. Which of the following creatures does Garet Jax defeat?

Answer: All of these creatures

This guy isn't named the 'Weapons Master' for nothing. He faces evil nightmare beasts as easily as normal soldiers.

8. What does the Ildatch do to Brin in the Maelmord?

Answer: Subverts her

Brin almost falls victim to its seductive lure of dark magic and immeasureable power. Jair arrives in the nick of time to save her, though.

9. On what object is Rone totally dependent?

Answer: The Sword of Leah

After Allanon gives it magic at the Hadeshorn, Rone becomes totally fixated on the sword and the feeling of power it gives him. At times, it consumes him so much that he forgets about everything else.

10. Who is the only surviving member of the company, besides Jair, to come down from Heaven's Well?

Answer: Slanter

Slanter, the Gnome, is the only survivor. Garet Jax kills and is killed by a Jachyra, Helt dies while at Graymark, and Elb and Edain die while defending the Croagh near Heaven's Well.
