Some characters

AKIVA Akiva is the first character who appears in the play with Berthe. He was a priest before he knew Berthe, but then he was called ‘The Lost Boy’ because he thought that God was lost. In Chapter XIII Akiva is involved in the ‘branch’ of the story in which appear Paula, Clark, Luz and Fuego.

He demonstrates in all moment, he is very brave ( some examples are when he helps a woman in her childbirth or when he helps Paula, Clark … )

BERTHE Berthe is described like a person who had always needed to be careful because she’s a witch . Akiva and Berthe must be together because they love each other. Berthe’s mother and family are also mentioned in Sara Peyton’s work.

Berthe gets married with Glukish, a big lanky man with a high forehead, in chapter VI. She is fill with fear in all the story because of being a witch (like in chapter XI when they try to kill her). So, it brings problems to her.

EFFIR NIJE Efirr Nije appears in the second ‘branch’ of the story, in the third chapter. He is tall and thin. He is the opposite than Paula, while she’s fair, he’s dark, Paula's earnest gaze a little frantic, Efirr's blank as death.

PAULA MAXWELL Paula Maxwell ; some characteristics of her have been metioned before. She’s also short and stocky.

She appears in almost quite the book, she is always with Clark, and then with Luz and Fuego. Akiva and Berthe joined them later too.

LUZ Luz, is a clever girl who had saved Fuego from becoming a murdered. Luz, Paula, Clark and Fuego appear together in chapter V, in this moment, things start to be connected.

FUEGO Fuego is Luz’s father. He was half Eyimalian and half Outlander. He loves her daugther ( an example is when he rescues her from the river , because she had fallen into the water).

CLARK Clark is always in the story with Paula.

These are some of the characters of the book, I haven’t described all the characters, but I have chosen the most important characters.
