The Prince of Ravens
Matrim Cauthon is a gambler, rogue, and military genius whose impossible luck and sharp wit repeatedly carry him through situations that should have killed him. His bargains with the Aelfinn and Eelfinn leave him with a foxhead medallion, the ashandarei, A hanging scar, and the memories of countless dead generals, transforming him into one of the greatest battlefield commanders of the Age. Though he constantly denies being a hero, Mat fulfills prophecy by marrying Tuon, the Daughter of the Nine Moons, and becomes the Prince of the Ravens.
Tuon Athaem Kore Paendrag
The Daughter of the Nine Moons, heir to the Crystal Throne of Seanchan, and a ruler shaped by discipline, duty, and an unshakable belief in the Empire’s traditions. After meeting and eventually marrying Matrim Cauthon, she fulfills an ancient prophecy while navigating the growing conflict between her convictions and the changing world around her. Intelligent, calculating, and fiercely determined, Tuon ultimately ascends as Empress Fortuona, commanding one of the most powerful empires in the world.
