Editing Queen Alusan A'Winterweir (section)

== Background ==

The daughter of King Hrothbert's brother, Admiral Daelin, and a Witch of the Fallen World.  Queen Alusan is one of a number of children from Admiral Daelin and is not the eldest.  This move was done by invoking an obscure rule of Parliament that allows them to select a monarch from an available pool of the Royal Household.  Alusan was chosen because she was pleasant and unambitious versus the much fiercer siblings.

Alusan has, unfortunately for Parliament, proven incredibly popular with the people.  Most of Parliament's controversial reforms have been championed by her to the point that they have mutated into something even they are uncomfortable with.  Also, she has proven a tireless enemy of Amania to the South.  Unfortunately, that was exactly what the government was hoping to avoid given Hrothbert's own madness.

Alusan is very peculiar in Winterweir for the fact that she champions the Realm as a place where all races should be allowed to interact in peace and brotherhood.  Given her two year reign is not nearly enough to determine such a thing, she's nevertheless managed to help make Alfein far more welcome to a diversity of peoples that she hopes will eventually be a beacon beyond Winterweir.

It would help, of course, were not Alusan easily distracted by the prospects of WAR WITH THE HEATHEN!
