The Return of the Prince

Posted by Eleyna on 03/21/18
In grief for my beloved sister, I have come to realize the importance of blood and family more than ever. That when a loved one is gone, you always regret the things unsaid and the actions untaken. In memory of Serafine, in respect of the candor with which she faced the world, and in keeping with one of her last requests of me, I stand before the people of Arvum now to embrace and acknowledge my brother, Prince Ettore Velenosa, a man that the Compact knows as Marquis Mydas Acheron.

The twists and turns of family history are too complicated to detail, but Ettore was sent by our mother, Princess Helena Velenosa nee Nightgold, to be fostered and adopted by her family in Stonedeep. We only discovered the connection recently and debated how to honor the ties of blood between us while also honoring the vows of fealty undertaken.

Thanks to the kindness and empathy of Prince Darren Redrain, High Lord in the North, a place where the importance of blood and family is felt in their every move, Ettore has been released to return to his family and claim his birthright as a Prince of House Velenosa.

From this day forth, Prince Ettore Velenosa will be recognized as a full member of this House and the brother of Archduchess Eleyna Velenosa and the late Princess Serafine Velenosa.
