Abrastal

Queen Abrastal was the wife of King Tarkulf of the Bolkando Kingdom and commanded her own regiment, the Evertine Legion. The Bolkando chancellor Rava thought that she also had her own spies.Dust of Dreams, Chapter 6, UK HB p.191/192 
She was described as having fiery red hair and deep brown, nearly black eyes. Spax called her Firehair.The Crippled God, Chapter 3, UK HC p.80
==In Dust of Dreams==
Chancellor Rava and Conquestor Avalt were discussing the possibility that Abrastal might have spies at the Letherii court who might be behind the mysterious deaths of Rava's spies there. They both seemed to fear the Queen far more than her husband and agreed that she must not get involved in their 'present game'.Dust of Dreams, Chapter 6, UK HB p.192 
Abrastal sent her daughter Felash, ostensibly as an ambassador, to Letheras to meet with King Tehol and Queen Janath. It was Janath's opinion that Felash had come to eliminate a rival spy networks, or rather her handmaiden would on her behalf.Dust of Dreams, Chapter 9, UK HB p.286-289
