Roderick

Always reluctant to be seen as just the Queen of her clans, Kerrisha would rather be running missions or working to fulfill her destiny as the Fifth Knowledge Guardian of the People of Otland Iis rather than sit on her throne or in Council meetings and, in Roderick, we see that. From the beginning where she wakes after a mission has gone terribly wrong to the end where she is tortured for nearly a week after following the Power, she is working to protect not just Drew, Otlander, and Mermshire, but all the Clans of the long lost island.

As some old animosities fade to lead to help coming from unexpected sources, others flare to rear their ugly heads to create havoc at Otland Tower and in other complexes. Kerreth, Edwere, and Jonathan stay by her side throughout it all and struggle themselves with having to follow the Power by not forcing her to run when they would all just rather be home with their family. But what would that mean for Kerrisha and all the Clans?

Still, staying quiet is not in Kerreth's nature as new abilities and Power Levels give him the strength he needs to fight back. The Power has made them equals and, as her Karth Tesha, he can rule her in matters of health. What happens when his Knowledge begins to open even more and his abilities truly begin to rival Keri's?
