Gaia: the earth mother, the force whom people ask for help in their magics, astrology etc

The King: who is possibly, ruled by the Queen. He is the head of the House of the Highbright (i.e. royal) family, in his seventies, but doesn't look much different from the other dwarves, other than his bejewelled clothes. The Highbright family tend to be Wicca. Apparently some high up members have connections with people high up in “the Sanctuary side of Sanctuary”.; Sonia, oldest of the next generation. Leader of the young social set. Asked Faith to bring her back a dozen truesilver ingots from Old Brightrock. Has the theoretical knowledge of the Noble mages, though not apparently a practitioner.; Sarah, (Sonia’s cousin?) a Noble Mage, helped Brundar’s curse effect, after talking with Nosander’s soul, thought removing curse would kill him.; Sammy, young boy, appeared at the feast.
