Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Polgara is a sorceress and disciple of Aldur in "The Belgariad". She guides Belgarion. Who is the sorceress from "The Elenium" who helps guide Sparhawk?

Answer: Sephrenia

Sephrenia is High Priestess to the Child Goddess Aphrael and instructor in the secrets of Styricum to the Pandion Knights.

2. In "The Elenium", there are four orders of knights. "The Belgariad" features the Mimbrates, the Arend Knights. Who is the greatest knight in Arendia?

Answer: Mandorallen

The four orders of knights in "The Elenium" are the Pandions, Cyrinics, Genedians and Alciones. Of them, Sparhawk is sort of considered to be the best.

Answer: Kalten

Of course, Kalten is not the only joker in the bunch. Tynian first greeted Kalten and Sparhawk with a mouse in his hand, and Ulath has a very misunderstood sense of humor. They definitely liven up the quest.

4. Sparhawk has the great fortune to marry Queen Ehlana in "The Elenium", one of the most beautiful women in the world. Whom does Garion marry in "The Belgariad"?

Answer: Ce'Nedra

Ce'Nedra, Imperial Princess of all Tolnedra, Jewel of the House of Borune married King Belgarion. Theirs was an unlikely marriage, but it was fated. Ehlana also insists that her marriage to Sparhawk was not just pure chance.

5. Which of the following is NOT a similarity between the Orb and the Bhelliom?

Answer: both are jewels

While the Bhelliom is a jewel, the Orb is a stone. Both are blue. The Orb was shaped by Aldur and its counterpart is the Sardius. Bhelliom was shaped by a troll, Ghwerig, and its counterpart is Klael.

6. At the end of "The Belgariad", Garion must fight an evil God - Torak. What evil God does Sparhawk defeat at the end of "The Elenium"?

Answer: Azash

In "The Belgariad" there are several gods - UL, Aldur, Chaldan, Nedra, Issa, Belar, Mara and Torak. In "The Elenium" there is an Elene God, the Elder Gods, 1000 Younger Gods, plus several others I've forgotten. In "The Tamuli" we are introduced to even more gods!

7. Cherek is a northern penninsula in "The Belgariad" known for its harsh winters and sort of barbaric inhabitants. What is the penninsula country of "The Elenium"?

Answer: Thalesia

Ulath from Thalesia and Barak from Cherek are similar characters from similar countries.

8. Martel was once a Pandion Knight in "The Elenium" but he was kicked out of the order. He eventually joined the enemy's side. Who was the traitor in "The Belgariad"?

Answer: Zedar

Zedar, once Belzedar, disciple of Aldur and brother of Belgarath, became a disciple of Torak. His fate was worse than Martel's. Martel died surrounded by the only two people he cared about. Zedar was sealed alive in solid rock, to live there forever.

9. Arendia is a land known in "The Belgariad" for the ongoing battles and feuds between the Lords of the land. Which land in "The Elenium" is similar?

Answer: Lamorkand

Kalten spent many years there in exile. When the Group went through, they almost got caught in the middle of a feud. In Arendia, the long feuds led to the destruction of the Wacites and made "outlaws" out of the Asturians.

10. So, what do our two heroes, Garion and Sparhawk, NOT have in common?

Answer: fated to fight a God

Sparhawk is known as Anakha and is feared by all gods. But he is the creature of Bhelliom and his fate is unknown. He does happen to kill a couple of Gods though. Garion of course, was always fated to fight Torak.
