Siegfried Maired

The fourth son of a destitute noble family, the combination of volatile factional strife, war with a neighbouring kingdom and fortuitous chance results in his enfeoffment as the new baron of the hitherto extinct noble Maidred family.

Entrusted with the lands of the deposed Earldom of Lesbel, he is caught in a bind as he has zero experience as a feudal liege. Without help from the royal court and effectively disowned from his real family, his encounter with a mysterious woman with the experience and skills he desperately craves signals the start of his journey as the newest of the Braudel Kingdom's feudal lords.
