Archirium Family/Aeneas
Contents
Aeneas Youth
Aeneas is one of the 3 brothers who started the Archirium Family.
Aeneas used to go hunting with his father. As a little boy he was taught how to kill a rabbit with a bow and arrow, how to behead a deer with one single swing of your sword. By the time he grew older he grew stronger and better with the sword. Aeneas had chosen the sword above the bow. It gave him a greater feeling of trust, but he knew the adventure and excitement was also just with the sword and shield. Aeneas had a pretty good life as a kid, while his brothers were studying he was practising with the sword. On one day his father took him out for another hunting party. They went so early that the birds weren't even singing that day. They stayed away all day. In the evening his father said something to Aeneas that will always be in his memory for ever. "My son, you out of all have made me the proudest, you know perfectly how to use your sword, protect your brothers, they are wise, but they miss the strength. If I'm not around anymore, please teach your brothers how to fight my son, teach them". A day later he and his brothers were send on a ship from their home. On the ship he thought his brothers how to fight and on the mainland he thought his brother Sycheus some more.
Atamara/Abington
Aeneas arrived on an island called Atamara, it was huge. He arrived at a nation called Abington. He arrived in the middle of a huge war, many countries fought against Abington in an unfair war and in an unfair attempt to siege it's cities. Aeneas took up the arms, gathered some men and stood strong. Remembering what his father had thought him. The first battle he ever fought was in the great city of Wayburg. Pretty soon Aeneas developed even more in the art of fighting and it reminded him of his father as well. Aeneas cannot live without the fight, for it's all he has. As long as he fights he's happy, it reminds him of his father and happy times. Aeneas kept on fighting in the gigantic war. Until one nation after the other gave up on the fight against Abington and stopped the attack. After some time in this peace, even though he was together with his brother sycheus, Aeneas couldn't take it anymore and left. He went to the war islands to find his happiness again.
South-East/Toren
Aeneas left to the war islands, more specifically to Toren. A friend of him back in Abington told Aeneas that this would be a great place for him and that he would be more then welcome there. Yet Aeneas didn't found what he was looking for. He did had the battle, but the nobles were almost fighting between each other and he got some trouble with the leadership. He couldn't take it anymore in Toren so he decided to leave there.
South-East/Taselak
After the inability to find his happiness in Toren he decided to go to Taselak. In Toren he had to fight against them and had noticed that they were honourable. One men in particular stood him by in his memories, a brave men called TuRk he was willing to fight for his honour and that of his liege. TuRk however lost the fight till death against Aeneas but didn't die. Later by the time Aeneas actually arrived in Taselak TuRk was already gone. After Aeneas had spent some time in Taselak he knew it was the place what he had been searching fore. A great realm with great and brave nobles. In Taselak Aeneas had to fight a 2 front war against Toren and Ikalak. A tough job since Ikalak was more then twice their size and Toren was just as big. But Aeneas was not alone and the Taselakian army stood strong, with many battles greatly fought wich most were against Toren Aeneas was welcomed in the HSG. (Heavy Strikers Group). This was the elite army of Taselak and Aeneas was proud to be in it. At time by time Aeneas had learned how to fight even better, but also how to use his brain. He contributed more and more for Taselak. And finaly at one moment he got into the Realm's High Council. From here out he learned how the military command system worked and became part of it. Later on Aeneas even became local lord of Lesthem, but some time later a nightmare came to every noble in Taselak. Something that should have happened months before it actually happened finally did happen. The Ikalakian army broke trough the defences and reached the capital city and occupied it. Only a handfull nobles of Taselak left, together with the rest, Aeneas stood strong and tries to trow the Ikalakian force of their (reduced) walls. Later on Toren failed to actually achieve something against Taselak and Ikalak saw it's change. They left Taselak city and Aeneas was finally to walk trew his capital again. But not untill he had settled something with a noble of Toren. The Noble in question has dishonored hi and he went to fight him. The Toren noble however never stood a change, before anyone could tell what both the men their strategy was Lucian was dead.
- Duel
Lucian has suffered a fatal blow in a duel against aeneas. He died quickly.*
After Homus Cornelius was captured by Ikalak Taselak was without a judge and Aeneas was elected. A few days later after Homus Cornelius had returned he stepped down because he believed he had to be fair as a judge and that people also should have the ability to vote for the former judge.
After the succeeding of Sandalak City to Taselak the war has taken a new path and so had Aeneas. Once again he got a region to take care off. From now on he was know as Aeneas Baron of Eledrir, yet after weeks of not fighting but doing other things he got a little irritated for fighting was his nature. When he went back to Eledrir to fix a bit he was captured by unknown forces in Fali. After a few failed escapes and a few days without beer Aeneas got crazy. The longer he stayed in prison in Ikalak the more insane he got, until the last day he was beyond any moral sense and any human intellect was left he broke free. After that he rushed to the front lines with a newly recruited unit and with absurd line settings. After storming on his own to a region with 2 Toren nobles he managed to wound them both, but in the end Lord Kanuni Kalkandelen, Marshal of the HSG his mentor his friend managed to calm him down again and all was back and fine. But out of protest of the behavior and in Aeneas' eyes cowardice of Queen Mischa of Taselak he stepped down as lord of Eledrir and there the last chapter of Aeneas' life story in the South-East began. He gotten into a fight which flooded Taselak with messages, from and to him. It was a dark time in Taselak for many got irritated by the ongoing fight. After more then 2 weeks it became less and all seemed back to normal. Because Aeneas was a respected noble in Taselak he once again got lord, this time of Triewa. But when he created his own army there for him and several of his best friends he had made there and his knights he got into a fight again with the Queen, this time it resulted in Aeneas forced to leave Taselak, while he did not wished to go to either Toren or Ikalak Aeneas left the South-East Island, heading to the East-Continent, his wife and son stayed behind with the idea to move later, his daughter went to Chasnoff in Atamara to continue her training she had previously had gotten from her father.
East-Continent/Fontan
Aeneas now had arrived in Fontan after lord Kanuni had told him his brothers were there and he would be safe and good there, as told he went there. It did not take long before Aeneas was appointed as lord of Oporto trough a election. His skills and his speech had helped him again, he could call himself lord again, now he would have enough money to bring his wife and son over from the war-islands and he send out his captain to do so. But his captain returned, alone with the information the Island had sank to the bottom of the ocean and that his wife and son were dead, Aeneas lost some of his self control because of that news again, but managed to remain himself. Then he and Korkut Kalkandelen and some others started working on a plan to create their own realm. It was in a time Fontan was fighting a 3-front war and winning. After a lot of planning inside Fontan's military council (in which he had by now gotten in as well as military adviser), but because of Jonnn a knight inside that council (who had wanted to be Ruler and Duke, but when he heard he would become neither) the plan had gotten into the Fontan Assembly. What followed were enraged nobles inside that Assembly because it was done this way. After that 2 months of discussions went on, in the end Aeneas and his friends managed to still win thanks to the way they have played it all and their new realm was created, The Sultanate of Asena was born.
East-Continent/Sultanate of Asena
Aeneas became duke of the Sultanate of Asena. His brother was there to help as well. That did make him happy though he never told that to anyone other than in his journals. At start he too had to fight a lot, mostly against the OR and OI, but Sirion came as well. He financed many things as far as RC's to armies to fight their enemies, anything to beat them and for the glory of their new nation. That went so far that in the end Aeneas didn't even got to fighting at all, but when he did he had to fight undead, something that changed and ended his life for ever. During this fight a fellow countryman got trapped by the undead, while trying to safe him and cover him Aeneas got hit, something that later got infected heavily with an unknown disease. He was shipped home to Atamara for treatment, but even that could not safe him.
This is how he got to his end, not the way he wished, but still a happy men knowing his daughter (who he saw on Atamara again where he had send her to learn and train) was becoming a strong woman more every day, to know that he had done well in his life.
