Kolvin Seni Galare Seni Galare Noble Kolvin ran the Seni estate at his wife Jeasa Seni Galare's preference; he was good at business and liked people. His closest friend was Haladir Delen Galare, Sediryl Nuera Galare's father, who had married Kolvin's sister. He suffered from depression, probably attributable to the near-impossibility of making Seni a thriving estate, and drank to cope. He was killed in a hunting accident when Jahir was still a child of 8 or 9 and Amber just 2 or 3. It's implied that he was intoxicated at the time of his death. Remembered as both stern and gentle.

Laiselin Sarel Jisiensire Sarel Jisiensire Noble Hirianthial's first wife; his song name for her was "Butterfly."[19] Originally from the Moret family of the Jisiensire, she took Hirianthial's family name because Sarel was (at the time) the ruling family of Jisiensire. Unfailingly kind and tender, and faint-hearted. Liolesa misses her as a moderation on her own far more forthright and ruthless temperament, and thought of her as another cousin. [16] She died in childbed with her first child, a daughter who would have been the heir to Sarel Jisiensire. At the time of Reese's arrival to Ontine, that was 60-70 years in the past; Felith reports she and Hirianthial had been married "not even" forty years before she died.[6]Her milk name was "Laisa."
