Aldern Thibeus

Aldern Thibeus (IGN unadequated), was a member of the Verdenland Council, the founder of the Association of Eldham States, and a speaker of Valore.

Aldern Thibeus was born into a middle-class farming family in Viodoxa. In his early years, he was educated in history, literature, and philosophy.

He came to Eldham on the 29th of May, arriving on a ship that crashed off the coast off current-day USSE. He travelled the lands for days, searching for somewhere to settle, when he came upon the town of Velthern, in the nation of Verdenland. He ended up joining the town, and the council of Verdenland. He is most known for his role in the AES as a moderator, and has assisted in the settling of a number of border disputes.

He founded 2 towns in Verdenland, namely Thoburn, a farming town, and Port Haven, a trading port. He recovering from an attack on his life after bandits, attempted to assasinate him in his own town of Port Haven.

On the 3rd of July, him and Thayn Choo, a fellow member of the Verdenland council, decided to seccess their 4 combined towns from Verdenland, and form a new nation, Valore. Due to unexpected circumstances, Verdenland was ultimately placed in the hands of Valore entirely.

Aldern Thibeus also assisted in the creation of the 3rd Coalition, which was meant to fight against a copy of Ellysia, called Majestia.

Then, on the 14th of July, he decided to sail off to a new adventure, to find new lands. He left his seat as Speaker of Valore open, and it is yet to be filled. A letter was left behind to inform others of where he had gone. It read:"'My dear friends, I am departing on my next big adventure. Where I may go, I do not know. I am sorry for leaving all so suddenly, but I felt like a grand gesture would be too much of a hassle. To my counterpart, Speaker Thayn, I wish you the best in guiding Valore towards greatness, whilst keeping the flame of Democracy and Equality alive. To my senators, I wish that I could've said goodbye in person, please give my best to all of you, and I wish you luck in finding purpose. To my allies, I hope that you may be able to make peace in the region, and I hope that your nations will have their seeds sown many times over. And finally, to my citizens, I wouldn't be where I was without any of you. You guys have helped me and Thayn through some of the toughest periods in Valore, and I hope that you find peace. No matter where I go, or how far I sail from Eldham, I will always remember this. I will always remember Valore. I will always remember Eldham. I will always remember my Hsæï. Vaęr Eldham, Vaęr Valore.'"
