Biography[]
Fen went into the infantry and hoped his son, Xaden Riorson would too.[1] While much of his life is unknown, he did have a sister and nephew, Bodhi Durran.[2]
As the Duke of Aretia,[3] Fen entered a contractual relationship with Xaden's mother to give him an heir. After fulfilling the contract his wife left, leaving Fen and Xaden behind in Riorson House, Aretia.[4]
In the years following his wife's absence Fen began to gather allies as he attempted to secede from Navarre, going as far as to enter his son in a similar betrothal contract with Catriona Cordella,[5] third in line for Poromiel's throne.[6] Fen was thus most known for beginning and leading what is known as the Tyrrish Rebellion, or Apostasy. According to battlefield reports Fen was responsible for shooting Brennan Sorrengail in the chest with a crossbolt during the Battle of Aretia,[7] and was subsequently apprehended by General Lilith Sorrengail.[8] During his interrogation, Fen accused King Tauri, and those who came before him, of an unspeakable conspiracy.[9]
| “ | In his last days of interrogation, Fen Riorson lost touch with reality, railing against the kingdom of Navarre. He accused King Tauri, and all who came before him, of a conspiracy so vast, so unspeakable, that it does not bear repeating by this historian. The execution was swift and merciful for a madman who cost untold lives. | ” |
He was executed by Codagh's dragonfire along with the rest of the rebellions leadership.[8] His name was on the death roll from the Calldyr executions.[10]
