Lintha Haquen falong Cousin Aisling

The Haquen hold a clear second place when it comes to wealth and influence, which they flaunt constantly. They maintain relationships with foreign courts, from whom they adopt new foods and fashions — often with their own gaudy spin. This gives them a reputation as trendsetters in Lintha society; they’ve spawned the current fad of vivid veils and flowing scarves common to many captains. They pride themselves on individu- al excellence and mastery of ancient martial arts, their members dominate the Sword Princes (p. XX). They often evince youthful — even childlike — features and nictitating membranes.
