   "'And there are no good fights anymore, either,' said Shant.
   'I know,' said Ibronka sadly.
   Roaana caught Lewchin's eye for just a moment, then looked away,
each of them suppressing a smile."

The Paths of the Dead, paperback, Chapter Thirty-Second, page 351. 

Shant and Ibronka are Dzur.  Roaana is a Tiassa.  Lewchin is an 
Issola.

David, please note on The House of the Tiassa page Roana is 
missing the extra a.

So if you feel sad that there are no good fights anymore, you
might be a Dzur.  You might be a Tiassa or an Issola, if, 
upon hearing your friends complain about there not being any
good fights anymore, you suppress a smile.

   "'Greetings,' said the Dzur. 'And welcome to Nine Stones.  I
am the son of the late Lord Shellar.  I am called Shant, and this
is my friend Lewchin.'"
