!!! Chay Catena
A very handsome soldier, blond and blue-eyed
* ShellShockedVeteran & SurvivorGuilt: before he acknowledges Ty's death and Isca helps him heal emotionally and he grief
* HeterosexualLifePartners & TrueCompanions: With Ty Sidra
** ''"His name was Ty Sidra. My brother-in-arms. A braver man never …" his voice broke and he could not speak.''
** ''"I was strangely comfortable in his presence, and he in mine. I understood him and there was no need for him to tell me that his brother-in-arms had been everything to him, his strength, his family, his home, none of which he had ever known outside of having Ty Sidra by his side. I understood why he could not let go of the fact that he had promised Ty that he would bring him to the healer women and then had sworn he would save his life and that all would be well."''
* WhenHeSmiles: ''"Chay played with the now empty bottle in his hands, then looked up at me and a smile came across his face. He had an extraordinary smile, like the sun came from behind the clouds. It lit up his face entirely and made him look boyish, charming and quite irresistible."''
* DueToTheDead: ''"When the pale winter sun sat as high as it could go on the low horizon, he came down the stairs, carrying his brother as he had arrived, and we opened the door for him so he could walk out into the thick, deep snow that lay in beautiful waves like a frozen ocean. He pushed his way through our yard and struggling, half falling, towards a small copse of trees in the angle where our drive met the road above. He laid down the body with exquisite gentleness into the deep white and began to dig at the snow with his hands, then with his sword, and I went out to him, through the thick dry snow, following in his footsteps and stood by his side."''
