House de Castellane

== History ==
House de Castellane was started in the south-eastern region of Aedwin many centuries before the War of the Daggers. As legend has it, a Lauch man named Bernard arrived to the then Haleish clan village of Ardinsport. He filled the Chief up with so much wine he got him to bet his city away in a game of dice. Bernard was said to have won the dice. Bernard is understood to be the founder of House de Castellane after he renamed the city Castellane and began trading with the Lauch, and eventually converted the population to Andophy. Hundreds of years later, Pierre de Castellane ascended to lordship, and laid the groundwork for the Kingdom of Aedwin after fighting in the War of the Daggers with the Sutherlands. Being one of the eldest and strongest Aedwinian duchies and Pierre being the lord of greatest influence in Aedwin at the time due to his leadership in the war, he was elected to be King of Aedwin in a landslide vote. After Pierre's death, Geoffery de Castellane ascended the throne and continued to rule Aedwin.
