Angela: Alright, Kallan. It’s your turn.

*Kallan arches a brow in question at her author.*

Angela: I just interviewed Bergen. I’m interviewing you next.

Kallan: Very well

*Kallan settles herself down and waits patiently*

Rune: This should be good.

*Kallan scowls and Angela grins at Rune.*

Angela: You’re next, Rune.

*Rune beams in good humor.*

Angela: Now then, Kallan. Introduce yourself and tell the audience about yourself.

Kallan: Well…I am Kallan, Daughter of Eyolf, queen and ruler of the Dokkaflar city, Lorlenalin in Alfheim.

Rune: Tell them how much of a pain in the ass you are.

*Kallan ignites the flame in her hand and prepares to fire*

Angela: Kallan, calm.

Kallan: But he’s such an ass!

Angela: *grins*…I know. Just like his brother isn’t he.

Kallan: Ugh! *Kallan extinguishes her flame*

Angela: Tell them about the Seidr. I’m sure everyone is dying to know how you do it and what it is.

Kallan: The Seidr? *Kallan flicks her wrist and a ball of fire appears in her hand.* I’m a Seidkona.

Angela: (A witch.)

Kallan: The Seidr is an energy force that is in all living things. As a Seidkona, I was taught to harness that energy and compress it to make fire. I can also manipulate the Seidr and draw on it like threads fastened to water, air, and earth.

Rune: Damn.

Angela: Yeah, Rune. You may want to be a little nicer to Kallan. Tell us where and when were you born, Kallan.

Kallan: I was born in Svartalfaheim, the ancient realm of the Black Elves deep within the earth below the Dvergar mines. When I was in my seventh winter, I and the Dokkalfar journeyed to Alfheim where we built Lorlenalin.

Angela: How would you describe yourself?

Rune: An ass pain.

Angela: Ignite him.

*Kallan fires a blast of Seidr at Rune who dodges the attack*

Kallan: Tenacious.

Angela: Tell us about where you grew up.

Kallan: Lorlenalin. The White Pearl. City of stone on the edge of the sea that overlooks the Kattegat from the mountains in which it was carved. Oh, how dearly I love my city and the people. My people, the Dokkalfar. I grew up during the war between the Dokkalfar and the Ljosalfar. Shortly before I reached my elding, I began caring for Lorlenalin’s orphans.

*Rune listens intrigued, unable to imagine this side of the witch queen who often lights his backside on fire.*

Angela: Tell everyone what it is you do when you’re not with the orphans.

Kallan: *Kallan glares at Rune* I would rather not say before my enemy.

Angela: Fair enough. Are you serious with anyone?

Kallan: *blushing* I don’t waste time on relationships. There has been no time with the war and…no.

Angela: Tell them about your worst fear.

Kallan: Fear? Rather personal don’t you think?

Angela: It’s because Rune is here, isn’t it.

Kallan: Yes.

Angela: Thank you for your time, Kallan. “Dolor and Shadow” is out today and “Lorlenalin’s Lies” is due to release next year.
