She seems at first to belong to the ragged stream of people displaced by hardship, quiet and easy to overlook. Yet beneath the plainness of a servant’s bearing lingers an unmistakable air of dignity, as if she has learned to make herself small without becoming ordinary.

Maighdin Dorrline enters the story concealed among refugees, taking service with Faile under the guise of a humble maid. Her past and bearing set her apart from the life she appears to lead, even as she is swept into the dangers surrounding Faile’s company. In captivity among the Shaido, she must endure a harsh reversal of the fragile refuge she had found. Her quiet presence carries the tension of a woman whose outward station cannot wholly hide her regal nature.

Description

Maighdin is described as a woman with a naturally regal bearing, though her clothes and manner are those of a poor refugee turned servant. Her attire is plain, practical, and worn, without the finery that might reveal her dignity at a glance. The contrast between her unassuming appearance and composed presence is her most distinctive visual quality. Specific details of her face, hair, eyes, coloring, and build are not given.
