Lucon Korlat

Lucon Korlat (883 BE - 52 AK) was Yutemond emperor (from 66 AK - 73 AK) as the husband of Empress Julieanna the Gruesome. He is the father of her firstborn daughter, Princess Jahzara Korlat.
Lucon was born to Empress Maria the Red and her Pithian consort, Tiberius. When he was sixteen he was arranged to marry his sister, Julieanna I and took his role as emperor consort when she ascended the throne in 66 AK.
In 73 AK, Julieanna I disposed Lucon as emperor consort due to his love-interest with Clara Akarri, a state official whom Lucon was not permitted to wed due to her humble origins.
== History ==
=== Origins ===
Lucon Tiberius Korlat was born in 1 AK, during the reign of his grandmother, Empress Aldara the Executioner. His parents were Princess Maria Korlat (later Maria I) by her Pithian consort, Tiberius.
Through his maternal relations, he is a grandson of Empress Aldara the Executioner, and Galerius of Stratham. Therefore, this made Lucon the paternal great-grandson of Claudia Sempronia Minor and her husband Aemilius Claudius Castilgilone; as a result making Lucon a distant relative of Constintina de Castilgilone (the woman responsible for the First Triumvirate) and the great-great-grandson of Sempronia Livilla, the daughter of Anastasia Korlat.
=== Early Life ===
Lucon enjoyed high imperial favour throughout the 20s and 30s. While Julieanna received a court education in the company of her tutor, Lucon pursued a successful political and military career. Following a prolonged period (30s and 40s) under his mother, Maria I, he returned to public office under the first state citizen, serving as governor of the Lewen province in 65 AK, and accompanying the empress Maria during an official tour of Feilerion (shortly after she fell ill and abdicated) in early 66 AK.
Atia attests to Lucon's ability to quote the important poets and writers such as Lucretius or Josephus on appropriate occasions, and describes him as a learned and educated man, with elegant conversation. 
Among his first published works were poetry, as well as writings on law and administration. Unlike his sister Julieanna, Lucon was not educated at court. Whether he received formal military training is not recorded, but according to Atia, he displayed considerable marksmanship with the bow and arrow.
A detailed description of Lucon's appearance and character is provided by Atia , who devotes a substantial part of his biography to his personality:"He was tall of stature, with a modest expression and a high colour. His eyes were large, but his sight was somewhat dim. He was handsome and graceful too, especially when a young man, he had whisky white hair and looked awfully a lot like his father, {Tiberius} and has little traits of that of his empress mother."Lucon was prone to suspicion, displayed an odd, sometimes self-deprecating sense of humour, and often communicated in cryptic ways. This ambiguity of character was further exacerbated by his remoteness, and as he grew older, he increasingly displayed a preference for solitude, which may have stemmed from the behaviour of his sister, Julieanna the Gruesome.

=== Marriage ===
On the first day of 66 AK, the two empresses (Maria and Julieanna) celebrated a joint triumph. She subsequently married her brother, Lucon Korlat before accompanying their mother to her subsidary palace in Pithia. Later, the empress mother would join her with their grandmother, Aldara I to the Imperial palace at Empress' Eternity
=== Orgy Day (68 AK) ===
In 68 AK, Julieanna developed a lustful appetite and declared Orgy Day. However, when Lucon protested she had the emperor consort whipped in public while she demanded that all those present strip and start having sex. According to Atia, Lucon disdained this practice as well as having a rivalry with one of Julieanna's concubines, Consort Septimius. However, Lucon was on good terms with the pitiful, Consort Cinna and Consort Fahrington. 
==== Role in the High Tribunal ====
It is reported that Julieanna and Lucon had an unhappy marriage and that she appointed him into the High Tribunal to oversee military affairs. However, regardless of Lucon's unhappiness in marriage he remains faithful to her for an unknown reason.
== Construction of palaces, buildings and other public works ==
For his personal use, he was active in constructing many monumental buildings, including the House of Lucon, a vast and sumptuous palace situated 20 km outside Empress' Eternity in Fort Eyr. In Empress' Eternity itself, he built the Palace of Lucillion. Seven other villas, manses and houses are linked with Lucon at Vinx, Griffin Fort, Stratham, Shadewood, Kolic, Baywall and Coa's Hill.
The Stadium of Lucon was dedicated in 72 AK as a gift to the people of Yutemond as part of an Imperial building program, It was Yutemond's first permanent venue for competitive athletics as well as being used as a training ground for imperial officers and enlists.
== Disposal as emperor consort ==
In 73 AK, the disposal act was passed and Lucon was removed as emperor because it was discovered that Lucon was having an affair with a state official of humble origins, Clara Akarii.
== Family ==
In spite of his marriage to Julieanna being relatively unhappy he sired two children, Jahzara Korlat who was inaugrated as crown princess at the age of seven and a son, Nicholas who died in infancy.
