Noble houses

A list of the Noble houses in the Acir kingdom

### House Tyrn

House Tyrn currently hold the power in Acir. Seated in Tal-Acir is Idover Tyrn, son of the previous king Thorsten Tyrn.

Janos Tyrn, brother to king Idover, holds the position of governor in Barn while their sister Yassira governs the city of Setha.

The motto of House Tyrn reads *Service through justice.* Their sigil shows the crown, resembling the position of power they have held throughout many years, and a sword going through.

### House Silkas

House Silkas has a long history of serving many kings and queens since the founder of the house, Treston Silkas. Their reputation is an honourable one.

The current head of House Silkas is Isaiah Silkas who took the position of his father Alwyn in the year 1505. He his personal advisor to governor Janos Tyrn in Barn and is married to Lida Norstrand.

Their words read *Honour & Loyalty,* two aspects they have always kept in high regard.

### House Thorell

The House of Thorell is both a famous and notorious house. They have a long history of violence and clashes with other houses and are known for their fury and skill in matters of battle.

The current head is Lyda Thorell, widow to the previous king Thorsten Tyrn. Both her brothers, Thorvald and Yemen, are Sons of Sha - a most remarkable coincidence - and will most likely not produce anymore heirs as members of the Order. Together with the fact that Yemen's only son Hagen only has daughters, the house Thorell might soon come to an end.

House Thorell's words read *The sword is ours.*

### House Norstrand

Similar to House Thorell, House Norstrand is famous for their history of violence. But contradictory to the Thorells, the Norstrand only use violence where necessary and only when justice is in their favour. Eirnhard Norstrand, head of the house, still fights in the front line at the age of 85, seeking his end as some say.

Robert Norstrand, son of Eirnhard, currently holds the position of governor in Daltos and is married to Ilaena of house Seering. His sister Lida is wife to Isaiah Silkas.

The words on their sigil read *Darkness will break,* referring to a future without violence and war.

### House Pollyver

As one of the smaller houses, House Pollyver does not hold a lot of power in Acir. Their influence however is another matter. It is said there is not a single city in Acir where there isn't a Pollyver at court advising the governors in one way or another.

The current head of House Pollyver is Jarod Pollyver who is married to Yassira Tyrn, governess of Setha. Together they have a daughter and two sons.

Their motto states *Obedience, Service, Valour.* Aspects they hold in high esteem.

### House Seering

House Seering has a misfortunate reputation. Early deaths, accidents, diseases... Many consider it a miracle the house still lives on. But it might not be for long. The only remaining members of the house able to produce heirs are both women, Elvine and Ilaena Seering. Their brother Brent passed away in 1482 at the age of fourty without children.

The current head of house Seering is Elvine, who is widow to Reys Thorell. She has no children of her own.

Their motto reads *soar,* but it seems like their flight might be over soon.
