( CALLUM KERR, BROMOSEXUAL, CISMALE HE/HIM ) — by the grace of the gods, old and new, i present to you LORD ELYJAH HARDYNG of MARZOLL within the lands of BERGIA. the gods have blessed us with their presence for 34 years. many know them to be DARING, AGREEABLE, OPTIMISTIC, and while it is not always shown, it is said they can also be AIR-HEADED, BRUTAL, & EASY. what will their tale in the story of metia be? only they can write it, so let’s see how their legend unfolds.
once merely a knighted house, the HARDYING line has been reliable fodder for years, throughout the war. never as commanders, only as storied soldiers of grand gestures of heroism, sacrifice, and love. it could almost be believed that was a hardying curse that, upon fathering one's first son, a hardying would immediately die in the next battle. as was the tale with elyjah's father's father's father, and elyjah's father's father, and elyjah's father. one of the first hardyings to hold the name in a time of peace for decades if not centuries, and the house finally being recognized for their heroism (potentially by one too many stories being ended with 'and what house was this solider from?' 'none of note, sir, just a hardying') that they were granted leave and funds to construct a castle along the valtolian border, joining along with other keeps and houses in maintaining the line of defense between the two kingdoms. holding the ridge near the strip of land connected to the uncharted lands, the newly constructed MARZOLL BURG utilized newer technologies and architectural techniques than a lot of long-standing ancient bergian strongholds. built with local stone, marzoll burg appears as much a part of the mountain as it jutted off from it, with steep walls and supports plunging into the valley below, and numerous balconies from which to enjoy the crips bergian air, and countless views over valtolia -- and into those uncharted lands, peeked over the wall. with a castle built as much for guardianship as well as observation, marzoll serves as a break point for messenger birds and messengers themselves, a freshly established market hub enabling new routes, and an observation point for those more aligned with surveillance.

as his father before him, elyjah was made fatherless by the time the next battle occurred after his birth. likely inspired by having continued his line, the late bryden hardying threw himself into an outnumbered bout, holding the line for an incredible amount of time before being left pinned to the ground by far too many swords for one to count. as a young lord of the house, under the stewardship of his mother, elyjah trained and fought -- but never married. he assumed, and believed, that, if he didn't settle down and put a kid in someone, then the curse would never take hold -- and thus, he'd be immortal in battle. having lasted longer than his father and his father's father before him, the theory almost seemed to carry weight. but then, the peace was signed. houses were uplifted for their service, and seeds needed to be planted for roots to take hold. only now, with no war to enforce it, was the hardyng curse still in effect? were elyjah to wed, and father a child of his own, would he then be doomed to die immediately after? having nothing but hope, duty, and a full pair to prove himself with, lord elyjah harding was prepared to find out.
