Isela Talsava Norand
this Fallanassi female was Akanah's mother. Isela was one of the Councilwomen who collectively rejected Tagge's offer of subservience to the Empire. Isela met Joreb Goss while she was on Praidaw, and they eventually got married and moved to Gavens. Goss left Isela and fled to Atzerri, hoping to make enough money to return to his family and give them the style of life they deserved. He never returned, and Isela and Akanah moved to Lucazec. Akanah believed that Isela died on Lucazec. Upon being reunited with Wailu on J't'p'tan, Akanah discovered that it was Talsava who brought the Empire down on the Fallanassi. Talsava was exiled, and brought Akanah with her to Carratos despite Wailu's offer to bring Akanah up in the Fallanassi circle.
