Lon was a Knorth Kendar who went into exile with Ganth and died when Gerridon's troops stormed the Keep searching for Jame and the Book Bound in Pale Leather. He was the one who taught Torisen how to ride.[1]
Jame attempted to burn his body in a pyre along with the other dead, but not knowing the pyric rune, and with insufficient fuel, she was unsuccessful. When Torisen, Kindrie, and Willow pass through to the Haunted Lands from the White Hills while on their way to the Cataracts with the Northern Host in Dark of the Moon, Torisen gets Kindrie to use the pyric rune to burn the bodies.[1]
