Cyril Woodstock

First archduke of the empire and uncle to the current emperor, Edward. The Woodstock house continued to reign over the northernmost part of the empire. Cyril had lost his son and heir during the war with the Kingdom of Orleans, leaving his granddaughter to be the successor. He was also fiercely opposed to Nicholas, his son, and Eltreza's, his daughter-in-law's, relationship but soon gave up trying to separate them.
