Lhewi Bohémský z Bohémy

Lhewi Bohémský z Bohémy is a half-Rulagii, half-Reykarii Soleannen Niedene from the Aqirli Rei de Reikarii. Born to two runaway parents, Lhewi did not learn of his true identity as a member of the Noble House of Bohéma until he retraced his family friend Reyjad Solgal's steps back to Galitz. Having no heirs, Reyjad Solgal bestowed all of his titles and belongings on to Lhewi, making him a Kesefor of the Aqirli Rei de Reikarii and by extension therefore a Kesefor of the wider Third Escharian Empire; as well as the Akesor of Falkeame.

Childhood & Early Life
Lhewi was born into a quiet family in Solitude as a lone child. His parents Magdaléna and Josef disciplined him well as he grew up, but kept most of their personal life a secret as Lhewi matured. Because of this, Lhewi did not go by any surname and his family were simply known by their forenames only. This agitated him as he grew older, because other children from Solitude would tease him for it. Having spent most of his childhood in and around Solitude, Lhewi became well-acquainted with much of the townsfolk. Individuals such as Reyjad Solgal and Akesor Tom an Weirika (who educated Lhewi thorough most of his teenage years) would become key figures in Lhewi's life. He was also supposedly caught on multiple occasions trying to sneak into the Golden Cow bar in Solitude, despite him not being old enough to enter.

There are not many other details provided in historical records about Lhewi's early life, except that it was apparent to him for most of his childhood that his parents did not, like himself, originate from Solitude.

Education & Early Adult Life
After reaching the age where the local Soleannen church stopped handing out free theocratic lessons to the youth, Lhewi was enrolled by his parents into the Reykarii School of Language and History; despite the school not even being operational yet due to its ongoing construction. Nonetheless, the school was ideal for Lhewi as it was located in his home town of Solitude, and it is suspected Lhewi attended some preliminary classes before transferring to a dedicated medical school to follow his parents aspirations for him to become a licensed doctor.

Although it is unclear where Lhewi received a formal education in the field of medicine, he did emerge with a doctors license and was cleared to help patients. However, much of Lhewi's earlier education on Soleannen theology blind-sighted his medicinal obligations, and in his early days as a doctor Lhewi was known to give out bias diagnosis' to patients. In letters received by Lhewi's patients, he suggested that they pray often and perform necessary religious rituals to ensure they recover from illnesses.

The Travels of Lhewi Bohemský
After a few years of dispensing semi-bogus treatments to unsuspecting patients, Lhewi was suddenly alerted to hear that his dear family friend, Reyjad Solgal, had slipped into a coma in his residence at Falkeame. He was quick to rush there, and offered his medical expertise in assistance to which the residents of Falkeame gratefully agreed. During Reyjad's time in his coma, Lhewi effectively took over the day-to-day running of Falkeame and garnered the respect of its people and travelling merchants. Upon Reyjad's awakening, he discussed with Lhewi about the fact his health was ailing, and his excellent job at running Falkeame earnt him the mantle of Falkeame's successor. Reyjad also tasked Lhewi with looking into his family heritage at long last, and set him off by offering access to his personal archives. There, Lhewi found a lack of anything to help his cause until he came across a copy of birth records from the neighbouring town of Baunei-Av-Kapuno. In it was the name of his mother, Magdaléna, and her birth date. Upon telling Reyjad this information, he promptly set off home again to Solitude, where mere months earlier both of his parents died in a tragic manner.

However, instead of returning home quite as intended, the appearance of Akesor Tom an Weirika again prompted Lhewi to follow him to Tom's residence at the Mistveil Keep. During discussions there, Tom revealed to Lhewi that Reyjad had took steps in actively attempting to track down his fathers heritage, and advised Lhewi to travel to Galitz to pick up where Reyjad had left off. Once in Galitz, Lhewi utilised an assistant from the town hall to access the post office; where instead of finding the tracks Reyjad had left behind, he came across a letter written by his father Josef to his mother. Inscribed in this letter were details about his father's family, the Bohemskýs, flight from persecution on Bohéma. Immediately upon reading this, Lhewi realised his surname, and by effect who he really was. On top of this, the town hall assistant found records detailing that Reyjad had bestowed his Galitz residence to Lhewi, and that he should visit it before he left Galitz again.

Lhewi obliged, and explored the house. But when he stepped outside again he noticed a scroll in the house's letterbox, which explained that Reyjad had died peacefully in his sleep. Devastated at the news, Lhewi grieved until the next morning; when he returned to Falkeame to claim his new role as Akesor of the town.

This story can be found in the books The Travels of Lhewi Bohemský and The Travels of Lhewi Bohemský (Complete Edition).

Family Connections
After rediscovering his roots as a member of the Noble House of Bohéma, Lhewi set off to Bohéma Island as soon as he had settled his affairs in Falkeame in hopes of reaching his kin. Upon sailing up to the shore of the island, Lhewi was greeted by two smartly dressed men who helped him from his boat. They then took him to the fortress of Jussberg, the centre of Bohéma's defences, where they asked him who he was and why he had visited. Lhewi explained that he had travelled there to try to find his family, and had been sent by previous discoveries made by Reyjad Solgal. The two men were rather taken aback by the mentioning of Reyjad, and explained they (like Lhewi) were friends before he passed. The men explained to Lhewi that they were actually two of a set of five brothers, Jakub and Libor of the Bohémský brothers. Taken aback by the revelation that these two men were actually members of his lost family, Lhewi quizzed them on their knowledge of his father; to which the brothers replied by saying during their time fleeing the Kal-Lir regime, Lhewi's father Josef was actually their uncle and had taken care of them all.

From that point on, Lhewi would be introduced to his other family members, including the three other Bohémský brothers. He would also be shown around the various businesses that the House of Bohéma controlled, including the family brewery and Libor's Tailor Shop. Lhewi then agreed to incorporate his own business, the Eratarrarost Publishing Group, into the family trust.

After a few weeks of gradually getting to know the family more, Lhewi proposed to his cousins that they should all be formally baptised together. Although Lhewi was heavily religious, as seen with his practice in medicine, his parents did not baptise him as a child, instead deciding to take advantage of the town of Solitude's religious exemption laws from the Soleannen mandate. Although much of Solitude remained steadfastly Soleannen regardless, the reason why Lhewi's parents did not baptise him remains a mystery. And so, with his cousins Libor and Jakub, the three were officially baptised in Sylene's pond in Falkeame, the ceremony overseen and ran by fellow Kesefor of Raykara and wife to the heir Valerian II, Katia Bellator.
