Quintana of Charyn discussion

Okay, so while I thought the ending was very hopeful and liked how the trilogy began and ended with a pledge, I felt like there were loose ends on what happens with some of the characters, such as Japhra and Rafuel and Grij and Florenza and Tippideaux and Perri and Tessadora. And what happened to the prince of Yutlind Sud.
We know that the prince of Yutlind Sud disappeared of was killed the the northerners, but how? Will Perri and Tessadora have a bonding ceremony and have children together? Because it seems like Tessadora doesn't want to. Will they visit Froi in Charyn, Froi who is like a son to them? How will Japhra find a way to repay Raufuel? Do you think Japhra will go to live in the godshouse in Charyn to be with him? Do we know if Japhra and Raufuel love each other? Will Grij and Florenza fall in love and marry and become the prince and princess of Paladozza? Will Tippideaux become the next priestess of the godshouse in Charyn? Will Isaboe and Quintana have more children? Because the novel made it seem like they won't.
I have a lot of questions, and part of it is that I don't want to the world of Lumatere to be over. But also it does really both me about these loose endings.

I really wouldn't consider these strings to be very loose. With the pacing of a novel you can only sum up so many thing before it gets tedious or tidy to the point of losing its realism.

The fact is that if these people and characters were to exist, this wouldn't be the end of any of their stories by a long shot. One of them could get sick and die the year following the end of this novel, or something marvelous.

I always imagine all my book favourite characters going on to have the same life I expect to have, one that shifts and changes, with ups and downs. Something even grander than the stories we read could happen 30 years down the road.

So in the end, I guess what I'm saying is that real life doesn't make any effort to tie up loose ends. And the mark of a great author is breathing enough life into the side characters that their pursuits and struggles are important enough to the reader to want to know all these answers.
