Lyon Tybar's parents

                                                                          Robby Benson as Lyon Tybar's father,  Redge Ryhawk.

as Lyon's mother, Dayauni "Auni" Ashfael
As newlyweds - Redge and Auni



Lyon's father, Redge Ryhawk was ruler over the Sogoian Assassins Guild.  Redge has a special cameo at the very first of the novel, Chest of Souls.  He is one of two escorts for the "One" when she is taken to visit the Temple of the Unknown God.  
Auni is never brought up in the Chest of Souls, but as the author, I knew she existed and decided that I may as well just mimic life.  I gave Robby Benson/Redge Tybar, Robby's real-life wife, Karla DeVito.
This helps readers understand the value of having a deeper understanding of the characters that are written.  Besides, I love genealogy.
