Catarina: Royal blood, her family used to have a pretty nice relationship with the King and his counselors. She got away from all the high class things when she met Marthel, married him and had Levora. She is a caring mother, always loved to comb her daughter's hair and give her the few jewelry she was left. Yet she believes Levora would have an easier life living inside the Order. Both of her parents visit her when they can.
Marthel: Once a royal cavalier of the King now an ordinary man trying to keep his family in a good environment. If only the King didn't betray him and the other cavaliers of his guard. He is not a member of the Order but he is aware of his daughters actions and relationships. He cares for her more than anything else and he would let no one hurt her. Levora can still remember her father hunting down boys at the street while holding a broom and yelling, the poor ones that liked her.
Levora: their only child, a young girl that joined the Order a few years ago, she found a safe place for her to rest, away from guards, thieves and basically anyone that seems dangerous. She is a vulnerable and sensitive girl, calm and shy but kind and generous. She joined after Everdys found her. She sees her as a daughter even if Levora doesn't lack one. She doesn't really have any skills to offer but writing and talking. Thelman insists on taking her as a student (cont)
