House Silverhand

House Silverhand is a noble house in the High Kingdom of Daelyria originating from the Kingdom's northern Archonate of Cliffton. The family is currently comprised of 4 members, the head of the family Broyo Fireborn Silverhand, his nephew Nitro Fireborn SIlverhand, Nitro's son, Joshua Fireborn Silverhand and Broyo's son Piet Fireborn Silverhand. The seat of House Silverhand is found within the magnificent Silverhand Castle, built by Broyo's deceased older brother, Miksa Iceborn Silverhand. Silverhand Castle is turn located in Silverhill, a district of the city of Aeryon and the administrative center of the entire Archonate of Cliffton.

Origin of House Silverhand
House Silverhand can trace its ancestry all the way back to Daemon I and Daena I Blackfyre, like most noble houses in Daelyria. But skipping forward the massive jumble of the Daelyrian noble family tree, the Silverhand family first entered the scene after Dixon Silverhand, son of Tommen the Silverhand, married Allyria Kaerfels. This marriage cemented the Silverhand family as House Silverhand and the family was considered a noble house from then on.

Creation of the branches and the temporary dissolution
Dixon Silverhand would father two boys, his eldest being Miksa Silverhand and his youngest being Broyo Silverhand, Miksa was born at the now destroyed Cliffton Peaks Estate while Broyo was born during a vacation in Meteora. He would give Miksa the middle name "Iceborn" and Broyo the middle name "Fireborn", this naming would lead to the foundation of the two branches of House Silverhand. Shortly after this, Dixon and Allyria would die suddenly and the two orphaned brothers would be seperated, with Broyo being swept away during the fire that destroyed the Cliffton Peaks Estate to the Kingdom of Kastollia while Miksa was neatly relocated to the city of Islerion in the High Kingdom of Daelyria. House Silverhand would be formally recognized as dissolved after this incident, but this was only temporary.

Reuniting the family
After the seperating of the two brothers, Broyo would mostly be forgotten by the wider public while Miksa quickly rose through the ranks in Daelyria. While Miksa was busy rebuilding and regaining the assets of House Silverhand, Broyo was working as a simple concrete labourer in the Kastollian capital of Meteora. When the two brother met each other again for the first time in a tavern in Frostarch, the two did not recognize each other at all. Broyo at this point wasn't even aware of his noble blood, he never even knew his last name, opting to use the last name "Vermaak" meaning "Amusement" in Kastollian. But it was during the years of the Helmian Federation, that Broyo and Miksa would slowly rediscover their relations with one another. With Broyo now running the town of Klerkenshoop, he had to interact with Miksa a-lot more as Miksa was the then-mayor of Silverhill, the city which Klerkenshoop relied on for food imports. But it was during the Helmian Civil War where Miksa would slowly realized that Mr. Vermaak was indeed his long lost brother. As Miksa had regained House Silverhand's noble status and even reigned as the last King of Mithra, he would become a major leader of Dommusist forces during the Helmian Civl War. Due to this, he would appeal to his friend Broyo to spy on Federal forces in Ilerya for him. After Broyo accepted, Miksa would monitor Broyo closely and was suprised by how similar Broyo's style is to his. Thus Miksa confirmed his suspicion and approached Broyo after the war ended, reunited House Silverhand's two branches once more.

Smooth Sailing
Now that Miksa had been reunited with his brother, he put would lobby the post-war government to put Broyo as the Archon of Cliffton, something Broyo was hesistant to accept. With the position of Archon in Cliffton filled by someone he can trust, Miksa then moved on to enlarge the Silverhand family. Miksa then collected his son Nitro Silverhand from the Dommusanad family, Miksa had been using Nitro to form an alliance with the Dommusanad family and as per their agreement; Nitro was to be raised as a Dommusanad. But Miksa had a sudden change of heart, broke the agreement between him and the Dommusanads and revealed the truth to Nitro. Nitro was then brought back into the family and was appointed the position of the "Lord of the Cliffton Interior" by his uncle. Now with his son and his younger brother, Miksa shifted his focus to politics and was elected the Chancellor of Daelyria. Overall, House Silverhand was sailing smoothly along, all the members of the family hold important positions in Daelyria; Miksa even discovered another one of his sons, Hera Iceborn Silverhand. But the waters won't be so calm for long.

Miksa's exile and death
An incident caused by Miksa during his time serving as the chancellor of Daelyria nearly brought the entire noble house crashing down. During a meeting between government officials, Miksa made a highly offensive deragratory comment during his conversation. The weight of the
