If you have read the book, you will understand the title
If you have not read the book, go and read it now because it is wonderful. (If you like historical adventure novels that is... or swashbuckling and Scottish accents... or generally being pursued by British soldiers while trying to save your own neck and another's clan. Whatever floats your boat ).
Well, about the drawing..

haha they probably are. "Excuse me, are you descended from a fictional character?"
