Character interview with Theresa DaLayne
Character
Name: Arwan
Character
Bio:
Orphan and gifted Riyata, Arwan grew up at
Renato’s estate in Belize after his mother was murdered by an underworld enemy.
For years he has denied his Mayan ancestry and shunned his bloodline. Now that
Zanya—the Stone Guardian—is back and bonded with her stone, he must face the
darkest part of his soul in order to find the revenge he continues to seek.
I don’t have a photo of Arwan, nor do I want
to assign one. He is a unique looking twenty-something year old with tan skin,
dark eyes, sharp cheekbones, long-ish dark hair, and a keen talent for martial
arts. He also has a very rare ability called timebending, which he does not
often use in fear of changing the course of history and affecting the future in
negative ways that he cannot undo.
Me:
Describe yourself what is your worst and best quality?
Arwan:
Focus. Normally that would be a good quality,
but I tend to be overly focused on a goal and do not stop perusing it until
I’ve accomplished it. Maybe that’s how I earned Zanya’s affections.
Once I knew I wanted her, I couldn’t stop until I made my best effort to earn
her trust.
Me: Have you?
Arwan: It’s a work in process.
Me: Do you think you deserve her trust?
Arwan: No. Not in the least.
Me: Why?
Arwan: Can we move to the next question please?
Me: Why?
Arwan: Because I’m not entirely comfortable
telling you something I haven’t told her first.
Me: Fair enough. What about your best quality?
Arwan: I would say patience. I need patience while training—especially with
Peter due to is lack of practice. He spends far too much time with Tara and not
enough time in the dojo.
Me: It sounds like you’re angry with him.
Arwan: Angry? No, I’m not angry. Just…concerned. I
don’t want him to fall behind. But knowing Zanya now, I can’t blame him for
being hesitant to leave Tara. It’s hard to be away from the person you care
about.
Me:
What are you most afraid of?
Arwan:
Failure. I’ve worked my entire life to prepare
for the moment I can finally avenge my mother’s death. Plus, now I have more
than just myself to protect. There’s no one else to lead the rest of the group,
and I have to be there. It’s my job, and I can’t fail.
Me:
What do you want more than anything?
Arwan.
Peace.
Me:
What kind? There are a lot of kinds of peace.
Arwan:
All kinds. For too many years I’ve struggled
to achieve inner peace, but that’s not possible because of who…what, I am.
Maybe someday I can find a balance. That’s about the best I can hope for.
Me:
What is your relationship status?
Arwan:
It’s…complicated.
Me:
You’re not going to improvise, are you?
Arwan: No, I’m not.
Me:
Okay then. How much of a rebel are you?
Arwan:
I think that’s more of a question for Jayden.
Me? I prefer structure. Though I suppose Renato wouldn’t completely agree with
the current events.
Me:
What do you considered to be your greatest achievement?
Arwan: Taking control of my darker side. Commanding
it. That is by far my greatest achievement to date.
Me:
What is your current state of mind?
Arwan:
I’m nervous.
Me:
Why?
Arwan:
Because I’m not used to people probing into my
personal life. Into my head. Marzena, the young dreamwalker, gives me space.
She doesn’t intrude into my thoughts. This interview feels a lot like when she reaches into my head.
Me:
What is your most treasured possession?
Arwan:
Does it have to be an object?
Me:
Yes.
Arwan:
My glaive.
Me:
What’s that?
Arwan:
It’s a weapon I use in both training and
fighting—a spear with a long, curved blade at the end.
Me:
You don’t have anything more personal you cherish?
Arwan:
I don’t have many personal items. I’ve never
needed them. I live with Renato, have the dojo at my disposal, and the jungle
as my refuge.
Me:
Which living person do you, most despise?
Arwan:
I suppose it would be wrong to say Jayden.
*grins *
Me:
I don’t think Zanya would be thrilled to hear you say that.
Arwan: No, she wouldn’t. And in reality it’s not
the truth.
Me:
So who is it?
Arwan:
Sarian—and my father. Both of them equally and
as fiercely. The end.
Me:
What is your greatest regret?
Arwan:
Existing.
Me:
Why?
Arwan:
I’d rather not elaborate. Are we almost
finished?
Me:
Yes, we are. Lets change things up. What is the quality you most like in a
woman?
Arwan:
Stubbornness and self-confidence.
Me:
Most men dislike a stubborn woman.
Arwan: Not me. It tells me she knows
what she wants. I like that.
Me:
Which living person do you most admire?
Arwan:
My mentor, Renato. He is like my father, and I
have great respect for him.
Me:
What is your motto?
Arwan:
You always have a choice.
Me:
We’re all finished up. Once again, Arwan, thank you for the interview.
Arwan:
Great. Thank you.

Summary from Goodreads:
Their empires have fallen, but their mythology lives on…
Zanya Coreandero is a seventeen-year-old orphan with only a single friend and no hope for a normal life. Diagnosed with anxiety and night terrors, no one believes her cuts and bruises are a result of an evil entity, and not a brutal case of self-harm.
With the only home she’s ever known being the isolated institution—where breakfast is a handful of medications, the psychiatry sessions are mandatory, and her every move is watched—the only relief is her red-haired roommate named Tara, who’s more like a little sister than her best friend.
Free will is strong, but destiny is stronger.
When Zanya is kidnapped, she meets a group of gifted Mayan descendants, each with a unique ability. Gone from a nameless castaway to the only hope of mankind, Zanya is forced to make a grueling decision: bond with an enchanted stone and save humanity from rising underworld forces, or watch helplessly as Earth falls victim to a familiar dark deity from her dreams. This time, he’s playing for keeps.
A wicked secret hides behind a handsome face…
When Arwan, a dark-eyed timebender, takes interest in Zanya's mission, it's unclear if his intention is to help, or if he's on a hell-bent mission for revenge. Wary of falling for another guy with major secrets and a tainted past, Zanya fights to keep her distance. If only her heart gave her a choice.
