Windchime Event

The Windchime Event was a series of interactions between the families of the House of Britannicus and the segregated blood of the D'lanastion Monarchy which led to the distribution of power between six major bloodlines: the Claudians, the Caracallas, the Numerians, the Olybrians, the Justinians, and the Servians.

The Aftermath of the BoTC
In 1599 A.F, the House of Britannicus stood as the predominate power in the province of Augustaminca. As the D'lanastion Monarchy continued to distribute the territory which each senior Magistrate of their coalition began to take presidency over, bloodlines which were split from house-to-house were called upon in order to look over the small sections of lands within the provides that were then-named "territories". Where the House of the Dominus presided over the northern province of Sinn'mearnu and the mountain-river valleys there, the House of the Imperator took the eastern areas known as Praevalita, dividing the area into the superior and inferior sections, the former of which was gifted to the House of Derien during the aftermath of the Battle of a Thousand Crests. To the south, the House of Julius obtained the area known as The Blackwald; to the east of that area, the House of Dominus' lines also extended into province named Valentinus.

Augustaminca, easily one of the largest provinces of the five, was governed by the singular Governor in-charge post-war: Gnaeus Truewing. Truewing, a sixth son of Prince Britannicus I, selected six men from his province whose lineage could be traced back to the aristocracy of the Highborne. These men were taken from the largest villages at the time which had stood even prior to the BoTC: Veloncia, Volencia, Orion, Illyrium, and Tetriarch. These men were the patriarchs of their line: Ricimer, Zeno, Polytheus, Rufus, and Maxil.

Each man was taken and sired on August 7th, 1599 A.F, and made into nobility. Their appropriate titles were "Sir", yet they - as well as many of those from their home villages and the territories granted to them then - referred to themselves as "lord" or "master".
