Harold V Lorling
King Harold V Lorling
King Harold V, born of the noble lineage of Rasfadal, ascended to the throne during a time of great instability and uncertainty in the kingdom. Though he was well-liked by his subjects, his reign was marred by an inability to maintain the authority of the crown, which had been steadily eroded by years of rebellions and disobedient vassals. Despite his best efforts, he was unable to rally the necessary forces to defend against the invasions of Meras, leading to the loss of important territories in the north.
His rule was also plagued by the consolidation of power by the rebels of the Murr Shore, who refused to acknowledge his authority and effectively operated as independent entities within the kingdom. Though he tried to negotiate with them, his attempts at diplomacy proved fruitless, and they remained a thorn in his side until the end of his reign.
