If I missed any characters or you have any questions, please leave me a comment below. I left out most characters with normal names (for example, Gabriel and Edmund) because those are fairly obvious, I think. Eventually I'll probably add onto this and do a section for pronouncing towns and cities. But it's late and I'm tired and I actually want to write the book now, not scan the whole document for names :p
Yours truly,
Faith (Ousma)
