'''Daorn''' is an [[Arelish]] boy on [[Sel]].
He is the son of [[Kiin]] and [[Daora]]
Lukel calls him and Kaise twins even though they aren't because they look and act so similarly. They are incredibly smart, and want to prove it.
===Meeting Sarene===
When Sarene arrived in Kae, her uncle Kiin introduced her to his children, her cousins
As they eat, Kaise
After explaining the Reod to Sarene, Kiin and Daora explained that they couldn’t bring themselves to hire servants and they didn’t really need to considering how much they could get done on their own. Kiin smiled and said it was especially true when you had kids to do the dirty jobs. They joked that they had Daorn because they needed another couple of hands to help wash chamber pots. A short time later, Ashe appeared to Sarene and Daorn was shocked that she had a seon.{{book ref|Elantris|5}}
Kaise scowled and sat back mumbling incoherently. Sarene asked what she was saying and Daorn informed her Kaise was cursing in JinDo. He confessed that she always does that when she loses an argument. They shared how many languages Kaise spoke and Sarene commented just how informed both Daorn and Kaise were. Lukel told her to not to be impressed as their tutors had been covering art history lately and they both had been trying to prove they can outdo the other.{{book ref|Elantris|8}}
Kaise mumbled something else and Kiin asked her what she said. She admitted that if the prince had been there, he would have taken her side. Daorn told Kaise the prince was just sounding like he agreed with her, that it was called sarcasm. Kaise stuck her tongue out at her brother and said that the prince thought she was beautiful, that he loved her, and that he was waiting until she grew up to marry her. Daorn scowled and said he wouldn’t have married her, as he married Sarene. Kiin, seeing Sarene’s face fall, hushed both children.{{book ref|Elantris|8}}
When Lukel and his wife, Jalla, left the dinner, Daorn made gagging sounds and told his father that he needed to speak with them. Kaise agreed, saying their dear brother’s mind had turned to mush. After her comment, Kaise continued to eat and Sarene began to listen to Adien. She realized one of the words he mumbled a lot sounded like Elantris and she asked Kiin about seeing the city. Kiin rubbed his chin and offered for the twins to show her Elantris. Daorn complained they hated that nickname, given to them by their brother Lukel, especially since they didn’t even look alike. Sarene agreed.{{book ref|Elantris|8}}
Daorn and Kaise led Sarene to the walls of Elantris. They walked up the enormous set of stairs and as Sarene looked down at the ground below, Daorn pulled against the back of her dress, cautioning her not to get too close. She recovered and noticed a large gathering on the wall’s top a short distance away.{{book ref|Elantris|8}}
She asked what it was and Daorn shrugged, not knowing. Kaise admitted the place was usually empty. Sarene said they should have a look. As they approached the group, they realized it was the gyorn. Kaise darted into the crowd, excited to see him. Daorn wanted to follow, but he remained beside Sarene like a dutiful guide. He didn’t have to worry, as Sarene wanted to get closer too.{{book ref|Elantris|8}}
After Sarene challenged the gyorn, Hrathen, Kaise rejoined the pair, telling Sarene what she did was wonderful. Daorn admitted that he didn’t like Hrathen at all, saying he was too…hard. He asked Sarene if he knew she was acting stupid. Sarene told him probably, but there was no way to prove it. Daorn told her than Kiin said the gyorn is there to convert them all to Shu-Dereth. Sarene asked if he did and Daorn nodded.{{book ref|Elantris|8}}
