abstract	Besides Bölk in Brokedown Palace, the legendary táltos also figures prominently in two of Brust's non-Dragaera novels, The Gypsy (with Megan Lindholm) and The Sun, the Moon, and the Stars. The Gypsy also has tunder and liderc characters, though the latter does not match Bodolai's description. Notably, in Brokedown Palace, Miska asks Miklós if he is a garaboncias. Miklós laughs and says he thinks that he is, emphasizing that he has travelled far away, and returned. This would be consonant with another definition of garabonciás, that is, a "Wandering Scholar" - one who learns magical powers, rather than having them inherent. Since Miklós has travelled to Faerie and returned (the "Wandering" part) and learned the Power of Faerie (the "Scholar" part), it seems likely that this was the meaning that Miklós intended in Brokedown Palace.
