A tall, powerful young Runa who survives the massacre at Kashan, Djalao rallies the people behind the pregnant and wounded human Sofia Mendes Quinn, who raises the banner of rebellion against Jana'ata tyranny. Djalao dispatches runners to warn other villages about marauding Jana'ata patrols. Djalao preaches that the Runa cannot simply abandon the cities and homes that they have built in order to escape Jana'ata tyranny. Djalao becomes a life-long partisan fighter and in old age is an obstacle to peace negotiations.
