“What? Yes, we are well aware of the problem. But we need to proceed with caution, as experience has shown this is not something we should take lightly. We don’t want to repeat past mistakes. So, no troops! Send spies and scribes who can bring us more information before we come to a decision in this matter.”
The young Emperor of the Horasian Empire is the son of the Magister of Magisters, Aldare Firdayon, and the Emperor Dragon, Shafir the Magnificent. All parties recognize him as the true champion of the Horasian Empire’s War of Succession, though many remain uncertain as to how being the son of a dragon will affect him.
Even after he ascended to the throne in 1040 FB, he is still rarely seen in public. Instead, the Horas often withdraws to his gigantic private library and spends entire days pondering his role as ruler. Unquestionably, Khadan is one of the most educated people in Aventuria. His calculating nature and imperturbable calm, with which he tackles every problem, make him seem eccentric, even to his advisors.
Voice of the People
+ “The Horas does things right. He lets the nobility do as they please, but he does not ignore the concerns of the middle class. A ruler who has little need to intervene in the fortunes of his realm certainly has the best advisers and knows exactly what he is doing.”
− “He has completely withdrawn to the Sangreal Palace and almost never appears in public. What sort of Horas is that? The people do not need a ruler who hides behind closed doors. They must see their ruler to love him. Khadan thinks he is above tradition!”
