Alongside '
Hordris' and '
Lilith', Aesandra is one of the alternative (or more likely, mistaken) spellings used by Dave
Morris in the Knightmare books.
In
The Quest For The Dragon's Egg, if the player meets
Hordriss, he asks them for help in banishing a demon. The player need only name the demon's master or mistress aloud to make this occur, but the demon has given no clue except for the utterance "res dana", which Hordriss identifies as distorted
Latin.
The player is given three options: the
Gatemaster,
Lord Fear and Aesandra of
Winteria. Aesandra is the correct answer, and the demon's words were an anagrammatic clue. (Hordriss never was that good at Latin.)
The story section of the same book (
The Forbidden Gate), uses the conventional spelling of '
Aesandre'. The reasons behind the inconsistency are unknown.
