Empire
Emperor: (23) Avocet Hugo Obadiah Solomon, Emperor of Yarrow
Empress: (17) Faustina Adelaide Phillida Ruth, Empress of Yarrow
From the Royal House of Cerise
In the Empire of Yarrow
Emperor Obadiah II and the empirical family have died, gone in a matter of hours in one fell swoop by the hand of The Fits, a scourge befalling the nation. No heirs lived except for the young king, Hugo. Hugo was devastated by the sudden death of his uncle whom he had spent many hours with as a young page and many more into his adulthood. He had learned much from the Emperor and knew of the load that now his young shoulders would have to bear. He had never thought to be ruler of a kingdom (he was the youngest of his three brothers who all died of The Fits as well) let alone a strong and vast empire. He had gone from Duke to Crown Prince to King and then finally to Emperor in a matter of weeks.
Long before becoming King, Hugo had his sights on marrying a young noblewoman but after having the responsibilities of the empire thrust into his lap, his counsel members advised that he marry the young Archduchess Faustina of Legolat, a war-ravaged country with great ports for trade and commerce. “It would do well for the Empire, your Highness, to marry an heir of such advantageous harbors. Not to mention the expansion of the Empire’s borders.” Faustina was the only heir of Legolat and was in desperate need to strengthen her war-ravaged country. “We need peace and reconstruction and the young Emperor may be able to provide these things to us, to Legolat,” she had said when she was told of the death of Emperor Obadiah. The marriage would be a good political move for each nation: protection for Leglolat and expansion for Yarrow. Faustina traveled to the House of Cerise immediately after being heralded by Yarrow’s counsel members to meet this young emperor and secure a marriage with him. She arrived two days before the elaborate yet mournful coronation of young Hugo. The Emperor and Archduchess were married two weeks after Hugo’s coronation and that same day she was named Empress of Yarrow. All was well in the land and the advisors waited hungrily for an heir to bind the contract.
