Early Life
Lucion Whyne was born in the year 400 AGW to Lady Helwynn Whyne and Luke Whyne. His brother, Triston Whyne, would be born in 403 and his sister, Larra, in 405. Lucion would fight in the final of the Pirate Wars, against the pirate lord Blackteeth. He would meet the young Frode there and would begin their friendship. Frode would offer his sister to Lucion for marriage, but Lucion politely refused. Lucion would then travel Majik, training his sword and mind, with frequent visits to the Royal University. His mother would be poisoned at a feast celebrating the union between her and Luke in 425 AGW.. It is believed to have been done by House Redwood. Lucion attempted to raise an army to invade the Redwood, but he was stopped by his father, who told him of the patience proper revenge takes. His father would arrange the marriage between him and Florys Darry, so that he would be permitted to use the River Darry for trade. They had their first child, Olenna Whyne in 430 AGW. Lucion's sister would become pregnant with the child of an unknown lover. Luke attempted to kill the baby with Moon Tea, but Larra remained pregnant. She would die giving birth to Magren Whyne. With no parents, Lucion adopted the boy.War for the Redwood
In 459 Lucion's father was old and aged. Lucion travelled back home and said his goodbyes to his father. Only Lucion was permitted to see Luke in his final moments, not even a cleric was allowed to perform his last rites. After his father's death, Lucion would pledge fealty to Lady Alyn Moore and recieve her support in the war for the Redwood. Lucion would attack the Redwood in the dead of night. His forces amassed at two thousand, and they cut and burnt their way to Redcastle. It is said in songs that Redcastle was filled with laughter and cheers as they celebrated the death of Luke the Fox, but was quickly replaced by screams of terror when his son came for revenge. Lucion spared only the women and children. He forced Elora Redwood to surrender her family's castle and relinquish the title to his brother, Triston Whyne. The remaining Redwoods were forced to flee, while House Whyne claimd dominion over the Redwood.Three Days War
Lucion sided with the crown in The Three Days War, going against Lord Frode. Lucion did not originally fight in the war itself. One of his sons died in The Day of Red Grass, and two others were taken captive. Because Lord Frode knew Lucion, he spared his sons from torture. After The Day of Red Stone, Lucion himself broke the siege of the Rune, where after a brief discussion with the Lord Frode, he gave Lucion his sons back, and retreated leaving the Rune to Lucion. The Rune itself could not have been taken by siege, but it's lords House Rose, had perished within the walls of disease and hunger leaving only Lorna Rose alive. Lucion quickly wed his son, Emerick to Lorna, absorbing the Rune into his domain. Lucion's wife died a few months after the Three Days War.Recent History
Lucion built a series of roads that connecting his own Castle Whyne to Bronzegate and Godspool. The roads allowed trade to pass through the lands of the Goodwater much easier. The roads were formally named the Bronzeway, but people have taken to calling them the Whyneroads. Lucion has brought much wealth to House Moore and himself due to his expansions and shrewd governance. He was considered for the position of Master of Coin but was denied by Aerentis who continued to control the entire council directly. He has not since remarried but has made offers to Orilana Færsath, even helping her in their war in hopes to gain their favour.Relationships
