Hanno

Hanno was a heavy in Sergeant Sobelone's squad in the 9th Company, 8th Legion of the Malaz 14th Army.
==In The Bonehunters==
After the Battle of Raraku, Leoman led the Army of the Apocalypse westward to Y'Ghatan and the 14th Army followed. Hanno married fellow soldier, Shortnose, about one week before reaching the city. According to Corporal Reem, it "aint his face she adores, if you know what I mean." Once the 14th Army reached the city's outskirts, an impromptu wrestling match broke out between Shortnose and Saltlick after Saltlick bit Shortnose's ear off. The rest of Sobelone and Tugg's squads gathered around the two straining men, watching and placing bets. Hanno bet against her husband.The Bonehunters, Chapter 6, US SFBC p.241-242
Adjunct Tavore Paran launched the Last Siege of Y'Ghatan by sending the army's sappers to breach the city's wall under the cover of night. First into the city were the Malazan marines, followed quickly by the heavy and medium infantry. Once inside the city, the Malazans immediately came under attack from hidden archers and warriors. Sobelone and Toles were killed in one such ambush. Hanno and the survivors of Sobelone's squad were rallied by Sergeant Hellian, who orchestrated a counterattack against their ambushers using smokers.The Bonehunters, Chapter 7, US SFBC p.291-292/298-301
When enough Malazans were engaged in street fighting inside the city, Leoman sprung his trap. The city's olive oil-soaked buildings were set alight and the streets quickly became an inferno. Hanno's and Hellian's squads joined a mixed group of survivors from Cord's, Fiddler's, and Borduke's squads fleeing the flames to the Temple of the Queen of Dreams. Hanno was among the small group of soldiers who survived Y'Ghatan by tunneling their way out from under the city. They spent three days crawling on their hands and knees through the dark led by Bottle and his rat.The Bonehunters, Chapter 7, US SFBC p.368/370
Having lost most of her squad, she was afterwards reassigned to Urb's 13th squad of the Bonehunters.Reaper's Gale, Dramatis Personae Hanno and the other survivors eventually caught up to the 14th Army west of Sotka as it embarked on Admiral Nok's Malazan Imperial Fleet to return to Quon Tali.The Bonehunters, Chapter 16, US SFBC p.669-671
==In Reaper's Gale==
Adjunct Tavore clashed with Empress Laseen at Malaz City and took the Bonehunters rogue, following the Tiste Edur fleet that had ravaged Sepik back to Lether.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 13, US HC p.356 Tavore invaded the Letherii Empire, burning her transport vessels on the shoreline and spreading the marines in isolated pairs of squads across thirty leagues of coast. The marines moved forward into the Letherii countryside with orders to kill Edur by night and stir the occupied Letherii into rebellion. Each squad had a mage responsible for hiding their presence and confusing their enemies.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 13, US HC p.361-365 
Urb and Hellian's squads remained together.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 13, US HC p.362 After defeating a troop of mounted Edur soldiers at Boaral Keep, Hellian put the squads on horseback and determined to rush ahead for Letheras, working from tavern to tavern along the way.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 14, US HC p.401-404
They ambushed sixteen Letherii and four Edur mounted on horseback, slaying the Edur with Crossbow bolts to the head and hitting either end of the Letherii column with sharpers. The Letherii veterans recovered more quickly than expected and Hanno had her skull cleaved by a Letherii sword. Urb pulled Hanno's killer from his saddle and struck him with his mailed fist, punching the man's teeth into the back of his skull.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 17, BCA edition, p.523
Presumably, Shortnose learned of his wife's death when his squad later united with Urb's at a village a day's travel from Letheras.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 21, US HC p.631
