	- '''[[Langrice]]''' - He is her bouncer, her "man," her most reliable instrument of violence and errand-running; she took him in when he stumbled out of the Anchorwood and gave him a job on the spot - ch 15. She trusts him absolutely with the Anchorage's hidden rooms and the Game, brooks his monomania, and exploits his obsession for intelligence gathering while privately wondering whether his wife is dead, waiting, or running from him - ch 24. She protects him from Evene's men by insisting "He's not all there, it's true... But he wouldn't just knife someone" - ch 27. He owes her a comrade's debt and goes to the Fort to rescue her, then breaks down at the sight of the centipede creature - ch 42, ch 44. She fires him with no back-pay, sends him through the Wood, and remembers behind his mask the single-mindedness that would "burn everything else at its altar" - ch 47, ch 49.		* '''[[Langrice]]''' - He is her bouncer, her "man," her most reliable instrument of violence and errand-running; she took him in when he stumbled out of the Anchorwood and gave him a job on the spot - ch 15.

	- '''[[Jem]]''' - She loves him in silence and accepts his unreachability; she calls his devotion to his lost wife what makes him "safe" to be near - ch 15. Loving a foreigner is "absolutely forbidden" among the Divinati, a prohibition she acknowledges without flinching - ch 15. She re-sets the tendons in his fighting hand after the Indweller ghost severs them, and comes back down to raise him from his knees after Evene's men beat him - ch 27, ch 42. She wants to go with him into the Wood; Langrice refuses, saying "Not with him. Not with the pair of them" - ch 47. After he leaves, she is still moping over him - ch 49.		* '''[[Jem]]''' - She loves him in silence and accepts his unreachability; she calls his devotion to his lost wife what makes him "safe" to be near - ch 15.

	- '''[[The Warden of the House of Hard Angles]]''' - His wife, his soulmate, his "beautiful killing blade." In the House of Hard Angles she is the vast segmented creature bound by necromantic wards; he is her "human servant, inextricably bound to it," caressing its flank with evident affection - ch 20. He regards her with ambiguous devotion: His charge, his ward, his mistress, his god, who even knew? - ch 7. In the Vultures' pit, he reveals "You had my wife. All these years, you had my wife" before detonating the creature's wards and kneeling before it, brow to mandibles - ch 44. He spends ''Days of Shattered Faith'' building a machine to shatter the House's walls because "She needs to be free" - ch 45. During his surgery she watches from the ceiling; the Warden and the centipede are the same creature, and the Under-warden is the bridge between them - ch 46. She bears him from the wagon through the jungle, silencing beasts and brigands, and carries him through the Waygrove portal in a "cloak of legs" - ch 49.		* '''[[The Warden of the House of Hard Angles]]''' - His wife, his soulmate, his "beautiful killing blade."
