House of Messer

The House of Messer of the Kingdom of Byde is a Great House of Fantasica, ruling over the vast region known as The Farmlands from their seat in the Kingdom of Byde. It's current ruler is Lord Helix Messer, with his son, Lord Charon Messer, being his heir. This Great House can track its lineage through many other Great Houses featured in Fantasica. It is known that the Messer's are against the Siegel Stronghold.

Background
Before the Siegel reign, the leaders of the House of Messer had rule over The Farmlands, and were tightly close to House Doncaster, the very first rulers of Fantasica. At the time of destruction of the final members of House Doncaster, Lord Errak Messer marched his army of soldiers to meet the Siegels on the field. Ultimately outnumbered, Errak and his men surrender to King Caladrew. Because of their early surrender, the House of Messer are pardoned and are allowed to keep control of the Farmlands.

Kings and Queens
During the events of Kings and Queens, marriage pacts are made, sealed and broken. Lady Esme marries into the Cunningham Clan, making marital history for both families. Lord Charon Messer marries Lady Mallory, of the House Knox, ordered by King Maurice. Anabel Messer was originally betrothed to Wesley Winchester, but in a plot created by her sister and the Queen, she was murdered, being thrown of a tower by Zelena East, a 12 year old baseborn child, working for Lady Esme. Sirius Messer is betrayed by House Stalli, and is sent to Clanton Gardens, with Lord Atticus Cunningham planning to foster him in a bannerman family. During the death of King Maurice and the aftermath, it is revealed to Helix Messer by Lord Eion Turnell that there are plans set out and currently in motion for the throne to be taken from the Cunningham Clan. Helix is then smuggled out of Jewel Keep and Woesien, by a sellsword named Cav to the lands beyond the Brotherhood of Arms. This ultimately sets the stones for the second novella.
