Ragi

Ragi is a travelling minstrel who meets up with Gerda and continues to travel with her as they go from town to town occasionally entertaining the townspeople with his somber ballads. Even his talking voice is rather monotonous though this is not because he is completely unfeeling towards anything. Rather the opposite in fact. His only travelling companion up to when Gerda joins is a white male dog or maybe wolf which Gerda later names Holger.
