Re: LaRe's KUY Royal Congrats: Round 6
in reply to a message by La Reina
Past King: Airdan Blackfern (Deceased)
Regent: Soora Wolfriver
Rankin Icefrost
-Girlfriend: Briallen Skyshade
Queen: Enola Wolffern
-Betrothed: Prince Aeron Slatewillow
Crown Prince: Efren Blackriver
Prince and Princess: Ári Blackriver and Alaia Wolffern
Of the illustrious Royal House of: Ayen
In the Kingdom of: Tavaraen
Ayen is starting to recover from the war. Compared to others, Tavaraen has had it fairly easy. Population loss wasn’t as bad as in other parts of the Southlands and the fighting was mostly far away so the cities weren’t destroyed as Keenor was. Economically they’re still doing pretty badly, though. The vampires collect heavy taxes from every city, town, and village in the Southlands and as Tavaraen doesn’t often use money in its trading so it is almost always things that are taken.
Despite their young ages, Enola and Rankin have adjusted well to their new duties, Enola as the queen making decisions, laws, and improvements within Ayen and Rankin as one of her diplomatic advisors helping with matters that concern other kingdoms and cities. Now that she is old enough to be married Enola is betrothed to Aeron Slatewillow, the third oldest child of Navarre’s king and queen. It is not common practice in Tavaraen to marry only for political reasons, but in this situation it seemed like a good idea to tie the two cities closer together. The young couple will take over all responsibilities of ruling the kingdom once they are married.
Rankin has been spending most of his free time with the wanderers his foster sister allowed to stay in the woods near Ayen. Wanderers are fully nomadic people who live in mixed species groups. Well trained in fighting for their protection, the wanderers were a great help in the war. After it was lost, however, they refused to help the settled peoples recover from the aftermath. People found the wanderers strange before the war, but this almost unnatural ignoring of their own kind made the general opinion of them shift to suspicious. Enola tolerates them but agrees with the belief that they are abnormal. She hopes that Rankin's interest in them is no more than curiosity towards an unfamiliar way of life. The Southlands are already in a delicate state in every way and although Ayen is not incredibly important on the large scale any further disruption of normalcy could prove more problematic than it might in other circumstances.
Rankin knows this and is therefore keeping his relationship with Briallen secret. He is aware, though, that he can't hide it forever, especially if they intend to get married.
