#CharacterInterview: Kat by Author Ren Garcia (League of Elder series)
Lord Belmont’s life ended in Clovis, in the impenetrable darkness beneath the ground where forbidden rites were once held. Lady Gwendolyn was his love, body and soul, and the Demon in Blue Light killed her.Every year, on the anniversary of Gwen’s death, he returned to Clovis to stand in the cold desolation, hearing the wind moan through the lonely passes, feeling her loss all over again.
On this anniversary, he wasn’t alone in Clovis. He heard the noises rustling in the brush. He smelled the raw river of Shadow tech. Then he saw it:
The claws …
The flicking tail …
The maniacal, glittering eyes fixed on him …
“I’ve been waiting for you,” it said in a grating voice as it attacked.
* * * * *
Far away, across the cosmos in a city of wondrous crystal towers, two people watch in horror as the desperate scene at Clovis unfolds. They had worked so hard, sacrificed so much, even argued for it before the gods. They convinced the gods they were right, that they knew best, and everything would go well.
But, things weren’t going well at Clovis.
If this situation went poorly, then ages worth of work would be lost, and, just possibly, the universe might come to an end.

A conversation with Kat, the 1st Countess of the House of Belmont-South Tyrol
- When you walk into a room what do you notice first? Second?
"Oh, you’re going to think I’m weird or something, but the wallpaper. I just LOVE wallpaper. I like to look at it, and I like to touch it, especially if it’s padded wallpaper like we have in the Chalk House. Hehe, you know, I even like licking the wallpaper when nobody’s watching. I guess countesses aren’t supposed to do that sort of thing. But, yeah, I like the taste of the glue. The second thing I look for is a bathroom. I love sitting in bathrooms. Yeah, I’m mental, I guess." - How would you change the world? The things around you? The people around you? "I don’t know—I’m still pretty new to the world and how it works. I guess I just want everybody to love each other. I’ve spent such a long time not being loved, I want to make up for it now. Love all around, everybody happy. Let’s dance and love each other. Why not?"
- How do you learn best?
"On the floor, after lunch. I love sitting on the floor. I feel all caged up in a chair. Yeah, I’m weird, right? But, that’s how G taught me to read mostly, us sitting nose to nose on the floor. I think I’ve thrown more chairs than have actually sat in them. Chairs are great for throwing, but, they kind of hurt my back." - What are your goals in life?
"You’re making my head hurt, haha. I just want to be a good wife and a good mom once we have kids. That might sound simple, I guess, but when you’ve lived underground under the Black Hat’s heel for most of your life, it’s the simple things you crave. Oh—I guess I want to master my Shadow tech too. I’m trying, I practice all the time, and I’m trying not to cheat using NatalZ of Mund’s ‘squash data’ we got in Vain. That’s cheating. I want to figure out how to make StT’s, like NatalZ could. But, it’s really, really hard. Hey, you’re not a Black Hat are you?" - What unusual hobbies or interests do you have?
"(Kat blushes) Well, ok, I’ll just tell you. I love tying G up. I’ll tie him to anything. Have sex isn’t the same unless he’s trussed-up like a Nether Day goose. Umm, that doesn’t freak you out or anything, does it? I mean, it’s all in good fun. I’m sure other countesses tie their guys up—look what they’re missing out on. I love my G … but I really, really, really love him all tied up."
