The Ducal Title of House Hale belongs to Duchess Hanith. She had 2 sons and one daughter by Duke Brilid. The legends of the Hale Housetells mostly of the two sons competing in service to amber and both of their lines dying out.  This passed the ruling line to Hanith's daughter. Dame Hanith is the undoubted Head of the House but each of the cadet branches has its own Head and they don't always get along. Also, the heads of the are of dramatically different ages.

===='''Rakala-Hale====
'''Duke Agalar Rakala'''- Hale is Hanith's great-grandson though her grandaughter's line, and he is the closest relation. 

Agalar is also the son of Princess Agcealea of Thelusa and Hectstar Hale. Since he is also in the line of Succession in the Thelusia Royal family(6th in line) he forfeits a claim on House Hale, some argue.  He has polity refused to accept the Duchy of the Hale in order to not anger the royal family of Thelusia.
