* Creator/MercedesLackey's Tarma and Kethry short stories were not initially in the same continuity as the ''Literature/HeraldsOfValdemar'' books, but they didn't ''not'' fit and she did some CanonWelding. Tarma and Kethry's adventures take place well south of Valdemar and several decades before Talia (protagonist of the first Valdemar books) was born, so they don't meet, but Tarma and Kethry do briefly visit Valdemar and meet a Herald. Their granddaughter Kerowyn comes to Valdemar, meets Talia, and becomes a Herald herself in ''By The Sword''.
