Countess Kelira ni Gwydion
This former Countess of Radiant Hope (now known as County of Lion's Reach) left on a voyage into the Deep Dreaming, abandoning her County Seat (the Rhapsody Freehold/Faerie Market) in search of Faerie Immortality. She returned many years later with her army of chimera and her extreme viewpoints even more prominent. While initially she reclaimed the County, her proclamations of madness and ludicrous demands soon had her stripped of her title by the Duke. The title was handed over to Count Leras and Countess Ionae, who is said to have put in her place. This is when she decided to wage war on the Duchy, inhabiting the island of Fort Lodestone. In a mass undertaking, Kithain came together, and managed to capture her without loss of life, handing her over to the Duke to handle. It's unknown what happened to her in the end.
Count Leras and Countess Ionae
Former nobles of Lion's Reach who held the reins of leadership for a few years, rising quickly upon the ladder of nobility. They brought the area together, lead them against Kelira, and saw peace for a while. The couple left Prospect for the Kingdom of Apples during the summer of 2013 to take up the once Eiluned-led Duchy of Ebon Rivers. The move surprised many.
Raoul
Baron Raoul ap Ailil, the Knave of Spades, Herald of Fimbulwinter, and servant to the Court of Shadows is an infamous Sidhe who is the oathsworn enemy of Ferdinand. After Ferdinand's father crafted a brilliant blade for the Baron, he reneged on his payment and murdered him for sport instead. He is known for having an air of predatory brutishness about him (an oddity for a Sidhe and especially an Ailil) as well as an echo of frost and winter that follows in his wake. For some time it has been speculated that the Baron has hidden himself either in the County of Lion's Reach or in one of the neighboring ones, along with his band of mercenaries. The Baron has gone missing! No one has seen of nor heard from him since this past Samhain. His mercenaries, now leaderless, have scattered to the surrounding counties, afraid that they will be next to disappear. Still, some whisper that they will regroup soon, and wreak all manner of havoc on the counties in recompense for the disappearance of their liege.
Countess Naevys Eloen ni Gwydion, Giant-Slayer of the Battle at Moon's Crossing, Dragon's Hope Peacemaker (NPC).
She is fearless, bold, proud, ferocious in battle. She is a somewhat traditional Gwydion, and yet very Commoner friendly. She deals with all fairly, be they Kithain or Kinain, Noble or Commoner. Unseelie, though, may see her as a bit gruff in manner. She detests Shadow Court. She upholds the Escheat rather strictly - anyone caught breaking it, better beware.
She has fought in countless battles across much of Concordia. She seeks out lies, bringing them to light. She detests the Shadow Court, and the games they play even more than some of her House might dislike those of Unseelie natures.
Upon Dyson and Alala abandoning their duties, She was granted the Title of Countess (though is more the adventuring and protective Knight at heart). She does what needs to be done, both serving the kingdom and House. Between her House command, and her friendship with Duchess Dahlia Rengstorff La Fleur ni Fiona, Naevys has given a Freehold and County to oversee. She has done much to polish the smear to House Gwydion that the late Countess Kelira left behind, from ensuring that Balefires find proper Holders to establishing an actual Kithain College in order to educate new Chrysalids and their Kinain cousins on matters of Fae Arts and Courtly Etiquette.
