Tryotsikov I

From Cool idea wiki, the free little world encyclopedia
Tryotsikov I, known as "Son of Rosso", was the first Rojoan emperor of the af Vayllae royal house. He was the only son of Consul Vayana, and upon her death, he inherited the title of "Riser of Vayllae", which, according to imperial law, allows for a private standing army. He had two sons, Tomauk and Tryotsikov II, one of which became Emperor of the rojoan empire.
== Early life and education ==
The legends surrounding Tryotsikov's birth tell that his mother, Vayana, recieved visions and the seed of Rosso, the proto-rojoan leader god of the wars, rumors of which Vayana was proud of.
Growing up around his mother's private army, Tryotsikov developed a great set of combat skills, often sneaking out of the royal village to pick fights on the rojoan marketplaces. The private army more or less Tryotsikov's caretakers, as Vayana was too busy with the foreigm relations between the assulians and rojoans. The peace in the rojoan lands gave no expectation of war, and the private army was of no proper use. They taught Tryotsikov how to handle weapons, how to follow the rojoan warrior morals, and how to one day, become a great soldier. 
==== Relationship with Ayikka ====
During his frequent escapades, he met Ayikka, who by coincidence, was also sneaking out of the royal village; She was the daughter of the Assulian king, who was visiting for diplomacy. Ayikka and Tryotsikov became good friends, and developed a special bond, which in their adolescent years translated to a deep romance.
== Marriage and Children ==
While it is expected for Princesses to be married away to a foreign prince, or a duke. However, due to the Assulian king's gratitude to Tryotsikov's mother for holding together the relations between the two realms, he gave his blessing and allowed Ayikka to marry Tryotsikov. Following Proto-Rojoan pagan traditions, Ayikka and Tryotsikov married on the shores of the Amarojillo river, followed by them opening up their Birth scars and dripping their blood on the river, devouting their lives to Rosso. Ayikka did not have a birth scar due to her being Assulian, but her conversion to Rojoan paganism was considered "the birth of a new person", so the priests allowed her to scarificate before the wedding. 
They had two children, Tomauk I and Tryotsikov II, with Tomauk being the older child. When asked about the nature of the names, Tryotsikov alledgedly explained: "Tomauk is the our blood spelled when we shed it in the river, and Ayikka, against my wishes, named my second son after me". This information is of dubious origins, since most records claiming to be from his words are most likely false. 
== Rising to Emperor ==
The Assulian king without a male heir, and since women couldn't ascend to the throne, the king's senile elderly uncle rose to the Assulian throne.
Because of that, the mismanagement of the irrigation project led to floods in the Akxulle lake that destroyed the low elevation areas, bringing the death of various important rojoan traders, pestilence, and mass death. Because of that, superstitions about the nature of the floods spread, and there was a huge uproar in the rojoan villages calling for the royal intervention and punishment to the Assulians for angering the gods.
The Rojoan Emperor did not want to risk cutting ties with assulia, which was in a state of decline, and the royal court decided to abolish his rule. To fill the role of emperor, they decided to do an election amongst nobles, where Tryotsikov came as a leading candidate. Few weeks prior, Vayana died, and her title of "Riser of Vayllae" passed onto her son, so Tryotsikov was in several ways more than qualified to be the Rojoan Emperor.
During his Imperial reign, Tryotsikov saw several logistical errors with the army, such as the priorization of nobles over qualified soldiers to leadership, underfunded and overworked peasantry militias,
