The bonding is a gradual attunement; a seelie elf who wishes to spend a great length of time far away from his birthplace can bond to a new area, it requires only the desire to do so, and time: A year and a day spent in or around the area he wishes to bond to.

The phouka, who remains simply "the phouka" throughout the novel, is just as well-fleshed as Eddi, with his lilting speech, his love of coffee and his ironic observances about Eddi's life.
