    Morriumur?

    Also, 'they' is used for plural, but not only. I promise you, everyone here uses 'they' singularly all the time. Like many words with multiple meanings or homonyms, we simply learn to understand it within context, as well as writers using context to make it unambiguous. 'They' definition: 1. used to refer to two or more people or things previously mentioned or easily identified. "the two men could get life sentences if they are convicted" 2. used to refer to a person of unspecified gender. "ask someone if they could help"

    Holy crap! I just looked up this character because I'm on chapter 14 of Starsight and Spensa refers to them as a 'he' when she saw a Krell ship at the test. I swear! "It still set me on edge, and I kept finding myself glancing out of the corner of my eye toward it. Who was piloting the thing? That dione with the two-tone face? No, I’d seen him getting into a simple shuttlecraft, not some sleek fighter." Sad, because I'm a very big proponent of a non-binary system of gender, but also not surprising since it has to be an easy mistake to make in a long book which authors have pronoun typos in all the time anyway!
