Perception

The Rightful High-King of Imperia

  • Post-Old-Empire, Antagonia was the seat of a new High King, for a while; Ref: Franks/Charlemagne—covered Antagonia, Generica, Überland, Naboria
  • Rivalry with Überland over who represents their legacy more-directly
  • Pushed to assert by the Druids via his Loremaster?
  • Father "The Traitor" was first Gronwyard king; a good start—"inciting incident"
