The Ancients left a guardian in each of the nine levels of the Mountain to the Moon. Only their names are known in Utolso Varos; some old people still half-remember nursery rhymes in which they feature - all except The Last of Them, of whom no rhymes were ever told.
1 – The Duke of
Doves
2 – The Creeping
Calm
3 – The Cold Light
of Day
4 – The Silent Maw
5 – The Weapons of
Glass
6 – The Thirsty
Lady
7 – The Tower
8 – The Chained
Prince
9 - The Last of Them
