For a sum of forty-seven years, Baron Fernand Auguste Ashford de Lewes served the Kingdom of Aaun and Virdain. In the duration of which he had served as the Mayor of Whitespire, The Chancellor of Aaun and much more. Lord Fernand sponsored the establishment of the Barony of Virdain in 1914 and has since then been the first and only to hold its title. Not only has he been a loyal courtier, but a husband and father as well. Now, finally content with his life’s achievements, the Baron has now formally decided to step back and enjoy the remainder of his life with his wife without the responsibilities he has carried.

 

In doing so, he hereby surrenders the Barony of Virdain and the ownership of Cors-Midden to his rightful heir - Ser Henri Leufroy Sigismond Ashford de Lewes.

 

May GOD bless the Baron and the family of Ashford de Lewes.

The Treasurer of Aaun felt the need to strangle the new Baron for the debts and to congratulate them too.

Marlene of Merryweather sent flowers to the Barony with a letter attached;

"To the Baron of Virdain,
I hope to congratulate you"

That is all it said, but for a few scribbled signatures of her children done in crayon.

As she read the missive, Amelia, Henri's mother, simply murmured: "You cannot escape your mother's blood."

Catherine de Lewes went to her grandmother, angrily pulling on her sleeve.
