## History

### Origins

Born and raised in **Eastville**, he is the son of a knight of the **Sternlands**, **Ser Grayson**. He carries the descent of two noble families, the blood of **House Barrister** and **House Sheffield**. After the death of his father in a rebellion battle, his entire family was butchered, except for his uncles, brothers, and sisters who escaped along with him to the **Free Cities** in a ship with his people, the **Last Blood of Eastville**.

### Upbringing

After the slaughtering of his family and townsmen, he along with his family and townsmen fled to the **Free Cities**, where they adopted the **City of Andrea** as their own. Later in time, Edward moved to the **City of Welton** alongside his two brothers and paternal uncle, while his sisters, middle and younger brothers, and maternal uncle remained in the City of Andrea.

### Sea Life

When the **City of Welton** was attacked by sea mercenaries, the **Lord of the City** assembled sellswords and all abled men, including older men, young lads, and the working labor of the city to fight for against the invading plunderers. At the age of 17, Edward along with his brothers, **Jorah** and **Olly** aged 19 and 15 participated in the battle as well, while their uncle alongside the merchant nobles and sailors used his ship to fight as the navy of the city.

Although the **Kingdom of Tyrinia** aided in support to the navy against the sea mercenaries, many died in the battle. And Edward's younger brother, **Olly of Andrea** died in battle, covered in the blood of his enemies, but most of all, his own. And for this, a conflict came between Jorah and Edward from their siblings in Andrea calling the blames on the these two! Following the death of their brother in battle, Edward and Jorah went into the life of piracy, as both brothers joined **Alto's Merchants**, a company of sellswords.

### Knighthood

Sometime in 184 CE, the two pirate brothers were recruited by their uncle to fight for one of the noble houses in the **Battle of Power**, where they earned knighthood and parlay by the **Noble House of Estonia** after its crowning. Following the battle, their uncle, **Ser Elton** was rewarded with lands by the Port Side of **East Town**.

### Rise to Power

In Late 185 CE, Edward became a privateer under the **Flags of Tyrinia**, and joined **His Highness** in naval campaign against the **South Islanders**. Sometime later, the Kingdom of Tyrinia and Easternlands joined arms with matrimony, and Edward, a Captain of his own ship was sent to Estonia along with the Duke of North Isle and the Lords of the Court as an emissary for the marriage proposal between the **Second Prince of Tyrinia** and the **High Princess of Estonia**, during which Captain Edward reunited with his uncle, a landed knight of the kingdom.

In the later years, **Captain Edward**, a privateer became a close ally to the **Lord of Fork**, so much so that he became a bannermen and was rewarded with lands and title as the **Defender of the Brown River**, and a lord of the sister-town of Fork, renamed **Eastville**, later becoming **Lord of Eastville**, taking on the formal name, **Edward of Fork**. After gaining Lordship, Edward called his family to Eastville to live the rest of their lives where the family reconciled, while his brother, Jorah remained a privateer and elected as the **Captain of the Silver Devil**, and vassal ally to Eastville.

### Love Affairs

During his time in the **City of Welton** alongside his brothers and uncle, Edward became a ***spice merchant*** and a member of his uncle's crew in the trade of ***salt***, ***pepper***, and ***red ash***. During this time, Edward often made visits to **Ringer's Hut** in purpose of business between his uncle and **Madam Ada**. And the visits became frequent following the mercenary raids of the city from 182 CE to 183 CE, and between this havoc, Edward became acquainted with one of the **Sand Girls**, **Tya**. The Affair lasted until the end of the mercenary raids, only when Edward disappeared alongside his elder brother in the seas.

After Edward with his brother Jorah turned to the life of piracy, sometime in 185 CE as crew of **Alto's Merchants**, Edward became intimately involved for some months, even during when the two brothers were recruited for the **Battle of Power** in **Easternlands**, the **pirate lady**, **Gina** along with two more crew members followed Edward to Easternlands to fight. The affair continued in Easternlands, and Gina went far to turn a privateer alongside the two brothers. Sometime in 186 CE, when Edward became the Captain of his own ship, the **Silver Devil**, Gina served as the **Deckhand**.

In the late years of his privateering, **Captain Edward** moved towards politics and lordship, during which he became acquainted with the nobles of **Easternlands** and **Tyrinia**, including **Lady Isabella of Seville**, while he courted many women in the Ceremony of the Royal Wedding between the two kingdoms, where Captain Edward and Lady Isabella came very close.

### Marriage & Children

In 187 CE, after courting Lady Isabella for sometime and their secret affair, **Captain Edward** and **Lady Isabella** were married in a small ceremony in **Eastville**, after becoming its lord.

Sometime later, following their marriage, Captain Edward and Lady Isabella were blessed with twins, **Gina** and **Lorys**.

From 191 CE to 193 CE, a rebellion battle took place by a group of vassal lords against their liege lord, **Lords of House Ivanstar** in **East Hills**. During the Rebellion, Lord Edward and Lady Isabella were blessed with two sons, **Morgan** and **Osmund**.

### Death & Legacy

The rebellion battle that took place from 191 CE to 193 CE, a rebellion battle took place by a group of vassal lords that revolted against their liege lord, **Lords of House Ivanstar** in **East Hills**, where Lord Edward alongside the Lord of Fork assembled their men to join House Ivanstar but were betrayed by allying houses and ambushed near Fork. While the Lord of Fork was slayed in battle, Lord Edward became the acting **Lord of Fork**, and raised a second army to fight alongside their liege lord, **Lord Auston Ivanstar**. The **Duchess of Lakeford** betrayed the noble house, **House Ivanstar**, and had her husband, the duke slayed in battle while slaughtering members of House Ivanstar, as some escaped to the Free Cities with the aid of loyalists. Lord Edward alongside his loyal men and younger brother, **Ser Martyn of Eastville** were slayed with their liege lord and the Duke of Lakeford in the **Outskirts of Fork**.

Following the death of Lord Edward in battle, his children were named the **Last of Fork**, carrying Fork in their name as a legacy left by their father, one who was but only the acting **Lord of Fork** during the **Revolt of East Hills** from 191 CE to 193 CE.
