Lelya-Earcala Dynasty

The Lelya-Earcala Dynasty is a family that originated from the predecessor state to the Aurlûnor Velande, the Sareanis Warlord State.
== Etymology ==
The dynasty's name has an unclear origin, but it is thought to have been, atleast according to Sareariel's accounts, a last name given to her by Viniminas upon her coronation as Velereth. The last name being "Evening Shine" as the coronation took place at night, and the moon said to have been shining upon the palace at this time.
== History ==
Sareariel's first partner would be her first husband as a mortal, Hiessan Locras, a military general whom she married when she was a warlord. As time proceeded, Sareariel would begin to take on more partners, and would have children with them. The records had begun to get quite long the more she took. By the year 760ACa, Sareariel had well over 24 partners. These records are however, hard to authenticate, as for whatever reason, records before the year 804ACA are near impossible to keep track of.
After 804ACA, Sareariel would had continued her marriage spree, with Dalatra Mosulia being one of her newest partners, and had three children with her. Eventually, Sareariel's international marriages would start to become the talk of Rathnir, until she had broke a record of having the most known partners in the world. Before her "death" in 1001ACA, the dynasty would be mostly active in the Aurlûnor Velande, Ryzan (through Shan Yazovich) and Paloro (through Ilinṅ Poldi Eman Paloro-Lelya-Earcala), but has a presence within Solisios (through Emelyn H), Boulderov (through MalibuKnight Joan K. B. Bolodrav Amakiir), Yimmu-Audal (through MisticCrafter), the Kingdom of Aurora (through Lucius von Savras) and Anglunia (through Eliyawin Yinower-Nuwan). There are also multiple marriages that are not apart of major houses such as Mel Valronov and Scotch Knight.
Dynasties that are related to the Lelya-Earcala include the Bolodrav Dynasty, House Paloro, House Nuwan, the Von Valdreach Family, the Von Savras Dynasty, House Amakiir, the Tossavich Dynasty, the al-Khamen Dynasty, the Valronov family, and the Tashili Clan.
Adoptions used to be allowed for Lelya-Earcalas to authenticize legitimacy. Noteable people who were adopted was Zion Lelya-Earcala and Gre'en Lelya-Earcala. However, upon Pyrrha Lelya-Earcala becoming family head, she would annual adoptions, and disallow it under a new doctrine which is known as the Pyrrha Doctrine.
== The Pyrrha Doctrine ==
When Pyrrha became head of the Dynasty, and inheritor to Sareariel's wealth, regalia and properties, she would create a doctrine, and decreed a code for the family to follow should inheritance directly is wanted.
To qualify for inheritance of any of the Lelya-Earcala Dynastic royalties, they must:
* Be Lûnatwa. No syncretism allowed.
* Be related to the family head directly.
* If no eligable female is on the side of the dynastic half's head of the family, a family meeting is held. Males may inherret as a regent, but once a female is selected, then they will run things. This will not apply to male intersex for this half of the blood, and Aegeus will inherret.
* The person must reside in Lhûmar or with the previous head.
* A will may be written to have the inheritance be passed to someone if they are apart of the dynasty.
* Adopted Lelya-Earcalas are ineligible for inheritance.
== Family Tree ==
A more comprehensive view of the family tree can be seen on Family Echo's website. However, the tree is not accurate to the accounts of how many wives and husbands Sareariel truly had, as well as children. The tree mostly lists known children as from memory or from confirmed sources. Any other information can be found independently from the library or from the word of mouth of Sareariel herself, as well as whatever Pyhrra has kept.
