Bastard's War

The death of Castor left the Esrio without a strong ruler. His legitimate children included: Darsis (20), Alivor (19), Sacris (15), and Povier (13). Darsis, being born under the Bow, was first in line. However, Alivor sought the throne. He and his bastard brother, Erryn, took power in a coup. Darsis was held as a captive and died one week later in a "riding accident."

Startled by sudden Edosi expansion, Alivor sent Erryn with a force of one hundred riders to secure the Neck.

Erryn's Lions made quick work of the force.

Erryn himself was known to enjoy trapping and keeping mountain lions. It is reported that he even managed to train a few. Some reports even claim that he always rode with two lions at his heels acting as his personal guard.

Alivor quickly grew wary of his remaining siblings. While Erryn held off an invading force, Alivor claimed to see potential in Povier and sent him on the Somber Journey, an Esrio right of passage for fledging Listeners. This effectively exiled the boy.
