The Helenist Imposter

Political event

A woman calling herself Isobella Bheuren travels Aldenord, claiming to be the great-granddaughter of the so-calledHidden Heir, Helena Bheuren. She makes no claim for the throne of Aldenord, but enjoys the hospitality of many of the High Nobility who are discontented with the rule of Mathilda IV Bheuren. It eventually emerges that she is not who she claims to be, and is in fact a runaway serf named Katerin Martensdottir, who had hit upon a scheme to con money from the High Houses. She is arrested on charges of fraud and sedition, and sentenced to death; however she escapes from imprisonment the night before her execution, and is never recaptured.
