Captain of the Royal Guard

Chaol Westfall

“I'll always come back for you.”

TOWER OF DAWN

Extremely good at his job — and his job was holding the door for the man who burned Terrasen.

Captain of the Royal Guard of Adarlan. Paralysed by the King's magic in the throne room, and then healed by a woman who worked out that the darkness left in his spine was living on his guilt.

We're Caffeine and Curses. The Library started as my design research — I can't put Aelin on a shirt without knowing which hand holds Goldryn — so we keep the notes here where everyone can use them. The pages are fan-made, not official; the licensed designs are in the shop.
