Young Duke of Mers, one of the two duchies of the sundered kingdom of Caindys. Has been called a scientist, alchemist, or witch, depending on the speaker's view on the subject of the occult. Seeks to return gods to the world, but only if they may be changed so that they actually help humans effectively. Seeks the faded god Belenus in aid of this.
Immoral, but a just ruler. His people love him and fear him.
