Character from The Realm of the Elderlings by Robin Hobb
A stable boy who followed Bee into captivity and became her most loyal protector — earning his name the hard way.
Per is exactly what his name suggests — he perseveres. When the Servants attack Withywoods and take Bee, he follows. Not because he's a hero, not because he's ordered to, but because it's the right thing and someone has to do it. His loyalty to Bee is simple, fierce, and one of the few uncomplicated goods in the final trilogy.
A young, wiry boy with the practical build and sun-darkened skin of someone who works with horses. He carries himself with a quiet determination that belies his age and station.
Also known as: Per, Perseverance
