The Steerswoman	comment	The Steerswoman series is a series of novels by Rosemary Kirstein, set in what appears at first to be a Standard Fantasy Setting, complete with demons, dragons, gnomes, goblins, and wizards.Rowan is a steerswoman, member of a guild of scholars and explorers. A steerswoman is bound to answer any question she is asked, except in one circumstance, and in return may expect an answer to any question she asks. Any person who meets a steerswoman's question with a lie or an evasion risks the steerswoman's ban; thereafter that person may not ask any question, no matter how trivial, of any steerswoman.(Steerswomen do not get on with wizards, who guard their secrets jealously and do not care whether they are placed under ban; they have their own mysterious sources of knowledge.)When Rowan sets out to find the origin of an unusual gemstone, she thinks it's just a curiosity. Certainly she doesn't expect it to be part of a secret which somebody might kill to protect. As her investigation proceeds, she discovers that the gemstones' origin is tied up in secrets concerning the origin of the world as she knows it (which is far deeper and stranger than she ever imagined), and that everybody's future may be hanging on the truth she uncovers.The series so far consists of four novels: The Steerswoman The Outskirter's Secret The Lost Steersman The Language of PowerTwo more are planned to finish the series. The first two novels have also been published in a single volume under the title The Steerswoman's Road.A large part of the fun of the series is figuring out, along with Rowan, what's really going on, so there will be a lot of spoiler tags from this point on.

The Steerswoman / int_121865ac	type	Noble Savage
The Steerswoman / int_121865ac	comment	Noble Savage: Bel and the rest of the Outskirters are something of an aversion: at no point are they ever treated as more moral or less decadent than the "civilized" Inner Landers. They're neither better nor worse, just different. Not to mention that they don't remotely live in harmony with nature: they consider themselves to be at eternal war against the Outskirts itself, and do everything in their power to destroy the environment wherever they go.

The Steerswoman / int_1c3464e5	comment	Klingon Scientists Get No Respect: Zig-zagged by the Outskirters. They divide themselves into warriors, who do the fighting, and mertutials, who do everything else: cooking, herding, mending, weaving, and so on. The first band of Outskirters Bel and Rowan meet on their way to the Outskirts indeed treat their mertutials like dirt... but this infuriates Bel, who for this and other reasons decries them as not true Outskirters. Among real Outskirters, mertutials are respected the same as warriors, and are often warriors themselves who have retired due to age or injury. In fact, Outskirter clans can only be led by mertutials, as warriors aren't taught things like how to keep track of supplies.

One is also expected to know all the intervening names, and to be able to trot out the full list from memory at appropriate ceremonial occasions.

Nobody knows what they look like because everyone who's ever gotten that close has died. What is known is that they make a constant whistling noise, home in on other sounds, and spray acid potent enough to melt flesh from bone. Hearing one coming makes the Proud Warrior Race Outskirters get down and stay as still and silent as possible. They're four-armed, four-legged Starfish Aliens who see by sonar and speak by excreting three-dimensional pictograms. They're sapient. And this is their planet.

Failing this trope is the main reason prospective steerswomen flunk out during training; being a steerswoman isn't about memorizing facts by rote, but being able to put them to use.

Likewise, the Krue, the people that wizards are part of, can only be descended from the crew of whatever ship brought humans to this planet.

Nobody ever knows an apprentice's life history from before a wizard took them in, and the appointment of a new wizard doesn't always correlate with another's apprentice disappearing. Rowan is able to convince the wizard Corvus to take William on as an apprentice, and in the years that follow, he discovers that wizards and their apprentices aren't selected from Inner Landers but another, mysterious people called Krue. Other wizards look down on him because he isn't Krue, and think of his apprenticeship as a mere affectation by Corvus.

Male goblins are called jacks, females are called jills.

Bel is an Unscrupulous Hero bordering on Nominal Hero who is gleefully violent and never shows any moral scruples besides her respect for Rowan, while Rowan is a Pragmatic Hero who hates having to do these things but believes it's necessary for her survival.

The Steerswoman / int_cec7dac0	comment	The Magocracy: In the Inner Lands, wizards don't technically hold any power, but they're dictators in all but name — they mostly keep to themselves, but whenever one of them starts giving orders, they must be obeyed. This ranges from forcing people to work for them for no pay up to conscripting entire armies to fight their occasional, inexplicable wars. Rowan hears an Outskirter derisively call Inner Landers nothing more than wizards' goats, and finds she can't really deny the comparison. By The Language of Power, Donner has had enough of its resident wizard abusing his power. Nobody sheds any tears when he gets assassinated, and they're resolved to make his replacement's life hell.

However, they seem smaller than most fantasy dragons, can only see motion (stand still and they won't see you), and are very resilient — Rowan has to put her whole weight on a cat-sized dragonet's skull to crush it, and when she strikes one's eye with her sword, the eye is described as shattering. They're robots built by a wizard for a long-running Monster Protection Racket.

When William and Rowan are looking in horror at all the people dead within the wizard's fortress, Bel just grins widely and calls it "well-done". She also has a very specific honor system, and while she's reasonable enough to let Rowan know when she's committed a serious faux pas, she also makes clear that she'll kill her if she ever tries it again.

(Neither he, nor his successors down to the present day, was ever a dictator, officially, though when there's a wizard living nearby you tend to do what he tells you.) What Rowan learns about dragons in The Language of Power strongly suggests that Donner caused the dragon rampage in the first place, to gain the townspeople's gratitude.
