Tathenal

Tathenal was a Thel Akai who lived on the Thel Akai Plateau in the time of ancient Kurald Galain. He was the middle of Lasa Rook's three husbands--the others being Garelko and Ravast--who lived together on a farm on the heel of the Lower Rise above their village.Fall of Light, Chapter 5, US HC p.127/135Fall of Light, Chapter 12, US HC p.362 The three men were farmers and sheep herders.Fall of Light, Chapter 12, US HC p.362/376 They were each other's closest companions and constantly traded barbs over their shared ties to the same woman.Fall of Light, Chapter 12, US HC p.363Fall of Light, Chapter 5 
None of the three men enjoyed Lasa's cookingFall of Light, Chapter 5, US HC p.128 Lasa thought all three of her husbands had the palate of dogs for shovelling down the meals she prepared that even she herself described as wretched.Fall of Light, Chapter 5, US HC p.130
Tathenal's dreams were haunted by visions of disaster that he saw as prophecy, but he had long since learned to keep his fears mostly to himself. Only his fellow husbands ever heard of the warnings his dreams produced and the men's words of chiding and amusement comforted him.
He carried a blunt-tipped two-handed broadsword.Fall of Light, Chapter 5, US HC p.129
