I must confess I had no idea who the Lowfires, the Evening and the Morning Stars, the Rainbow Girl, the Six Sisters, the Twin Sisters, the White Princess, and the Robber were. I had to look them up in my PDF collection — and I still don't know who the Twin Sisters are (I thought the term referred to Asrelia and Ty Kora Tek, but they have their own entries). The Robber is still eluding me.

Also unsure whether “the Travelling Stone” refers to Larnste or to someone else.

  1. The Lowfires are sons and daughters of Lodril and are Mahome, Gustbran and Oakfed.

    Rainbow Girl and White Princess are Praxian spirits mentioned in Nomad Gods.

    The six sisters could be the six Earth Goddesses as a whole but also could be the hills at the edge of the Sazdorf lands. If the latter case, it would be odd that they warrant a mention in the Book.

    Robber is Magasta's squeeze and mother of the Sea Trolls.

    The Twin Sisters could be the Twin Stars but I never knew they were both female before.

    The Travelling Stone is a spirit that inhabits a rock at the edge of Tarsh and is appears in the Dragon Pass Boardgame.
