Horult Chiv

Horult Chiv was a Tiste and captain of House Drethdenan's Houseblades in the time of ancient Kharkanas.Fall of Light, Chapter 20, US HC p.603-604 His sister, Sekarrow, was a fellow Houseblade, but the two could not appear more different. Horult Chiv had a robust and solid frame and his face was all sharp angles. His hands were broad, battered, and blunt.
He was also the husband and long-time lover of his lord, Drethdenan. His lord adored him and their love "delivered a kind of balm to all who witnessed it."
==In Fall of Light==
Horult Chiv and his sister were among the entourage of Lord Drethdenan when he met with members of various Tiste noble houses gathered at Tulla Hold as the Tiste ventured closer to civil war. As Drethdenan's husband, Horult Chiv had the right to sit by his lord's side in the dining hall, but instead chose to eat with SekarroW and the Tulla castellan, Rancept, the hold's kitchen. Sekarrow playfully asked for Rancept's assistance in explaining her thoughts to her "dimwitted sibling". She explained that Drethdenan feared losing her brother in the coming war.Fall of Light, Chapter 20, US HC p.603-607
Later, Horult Chiv, Sekarrow, and Rancept found themselves together once more in Kharkanas as the companies of Houseblades left the city to face the army of Vatha Urusander at the Valley of Tarns.Fall of Light, Chapter 25, US HC p.766-767
==Speculations==
It was unclear if Horult Chiv was the Tiste Andii night-hunter named Horult, who served Anomander Rake in Darujhistan during Gardens of the Moon.
