Duke Emon the Oak

A wise and old monarch of Aquintia who has maintained his father's legacy of peace an prosperity while allowing the state to improve steadily through passive legislation and regulation. The dear Duke is beloved by all, but it is feared that his health will soon fail him and his successors do not show promise. His wife passed some time ago and his eldest son was killed in a foreign country on a diplomatic mission. The eldest held the promise of a bright future, but with him gone it leaves his two siblings to take the throne. The Duke would be a great ally for a guild master pestered by a local lord, and having his successor would be also be a great boon for future endeavors.
