King Thorstein Noah of Elwynn with the Sword of Goodness.

King Noah of Elwynn (born 1616), who is also known as Thorstein Noah of the Houses of Ayreon-Kalirion and of the Descendants of Freyja as well as Thorstein Noah of the Houses of Ayreon-Kalirion and Ettlingar Freyu, is the Monarch of the Elwynnese Union. In 1623 he succeeded to the White Orchid Throne upon the abdication of His, now late, elder brother Prince Jonathan of Elwynn. In 1629 Noah became King upon the elevation of the Rulership of Elwynn from Prince to King. It is said that he indentifies as Froyalanish.

He is one of the most Imperial and Royal Persons in the world, having family ties to all the major Ruling Monarchs of the planet.

Parents

King Noah was born from the marriage between the Storjarl Hallbjörn Haraldsson of the Houses of Ayreon-Kalirion and of the Descendants of Freyja and the Storjarla Esther Maryam Amirdokhtar of the Houses of Ayreon-Kalirion and of the Descendants of Freyja.

Siblings

Aside from His deceased brother Prince Jonathan, King Noah has two siblings, an elder sister, Princess Fjǫrleif of Elwynn, and his younger twin brother Prince Audun Joel of Elwynn.

Children

King Noah has six children, four of legacy and two of his body, of whom four are still among the living. His children of the legacy are from His Queen Consort Mortal's first marriage with the late Prince Nathananiel of Natopia, quadruplets who were begotten by artificial insemination and born in 1630.

His Riverine Majesty's children are, in order of birth:

  • Adam Anushiruwân Hilding Ayreon-Kalirion ibn al-Majeed bin Sathrati of Waffel-Paine (1630- );
  • Zahir al Din Benjamin Rai Ayreon-Kalirion ibn al-Majeed bin Sathrati of Waffel-Paine(1630- );
  • Rostam Job Cashmael Ayreon-Kalirion ibn al-Majeed bin Sathrati of Waffel-Paine (1630-1639);
  • Arn David Shapur Ayreon-Kalirion ibn al-Majeed bin Sathrati of Waffel-Paine (1630-1639);
  • Vilhjálm Daniel Gudrödar Ayreon-Kalirion ibn al-Majeed bin Sathrati af Ettlingum Freyu (1635- );
  • Esther Fatima Gudrid Ayreon-Kalirion ibn al-Majeed bin Sathrati af Ettlingum Freyu (1638- ).

Wife Mortal

On the twentieth day of Laemill 1632 King Noah was joined in matrimony with Grand Duchess Noor of Goldshire in a ceremony in accordance with the rites of the Temple of the Lakes, at Haraldsborg, the foremost temple of the Hurmudaic Faith.

King Noah had - just like many an other member of the Royal Family of the Elwynnese Union, including Princess Fjǫrleif Llængjarla of Amokolia - a crush on the Lady Noor, and made several attempts to win her heart and hand in marriage. Attempts which she politely graciously and rejected, deeming His Riverine Majesty too young for her. However, the young King persisted and in 1633 she finally gave in and accepted his marriage proposal.

The ceremony took place at Cashma House on Cashma Island in Lake Cashma in the Kingdom of Craitland with Sir Vilhjálm Kormak, who is the Chairman of the Council of Elders of the Temple of the Lakes, at Haraldsborg, as officiant.

The marriage began promisingly and soon enough, in late 1634, Noor was able to quietly confide in her husband, as an aside when discussing otherwise mundane court matters - some petition pertaining to the Royal Parliament - that she was expectant with child. Naturally, although the news was not made widely public, every attention was lavished upon her. For Noor however childbirth was a familiar ordeal, and in order to better face it she retired to the Grand Ducal palace of Goldshire Hamlet (actually a major metropolis in spite of its name) with its breathtaking sea-vistas that she found so relaxing.

Every thought had been given to her comfort, but not enough consideration had been given to her safety. Somehow, something as a blatant as an anonymous parcel addressed to the Grand-Duchess containing, of all things, a cake, managed to pass through the hands of a postal courier, the scullery maid, the butler, housekeeping supervisor, the correspondence officer, two footmen, another butler, the Steward, the Grand-Duchess' Press-Secretary, the correspondence officer again, another footman, a Leonid Guardsman, a pair of guards from the Order of the Golden Spear, finally ending up in the hands of another Leonid Guardsman. Here the parcel was held for an hour while the Ducal and Personal Guards argued over which guards detachment had the right to carry a parcel to the royal chambers. This question of protocol was resolved by amicable fisticuffs and it was the Leonid Guard who carried the box to the Grand-Duchess' private apartment.

After the guard had delivered the package and departed the glimmer of a doubt clouded his mind, and he made his way towards the kitchens to find one of the tasters who had been employed by the Dukes of Goldshire as a custom dating back to the days when you couldn't move for titled Yastreb's who had been poisoned by the over-mighty Avakair Mint. Regrettably, by the time the Guard had found a suitably sober food taster (most customarily branched out into wine sampling, as a precaution) and returned to the royal apartments, Noor had already tasted the delicious desert-berry cake laced with Misoprostol and suffered a miscarriage.

Hardly a day passed and yet in the time it took for King Noah to arrive and take charge of his wife's security and the investigation into the attack on her person, the postal courier, the scullery maid, the two butlers, the housekeeping supervisor, the correspondence officer, the three footmen, the Steward, the Grand-Duchess' Press-Secretary, the pair of Leonid Guardsmen, and both of the guards from the Order of the Golden Spear had all been impaled in the Palace courtyard for failing in their duty to the Queen. Although her strength had not yet recovered, Noor was sufficiently spirited to demand that her husband find her assailants, kill their children in front of their eyes and then cast them into gaol to rot for the rest of their lives. Instead, offered as a compromise, the King promised that justice would be served in accordance with Elwynnese Law.

King Thorstein Noah of Elwynn and Grand Duchess Noor of Goldshire lovingly and tenderly posing during their betrothal press conference.

Subsequently the finest minds of the Mango Rangers, the Leonid Guards, the Avakair Mint, the Union Defence Force, the Order of the Golden Spear, the Suthergold Defender's League and a couple of private detectives provided pro bono by the ESB-Jörmungandr Group, have met and, having examined the crime scene, agreed that the dark blue glass orchid delivered with the cake and engraved with the name of the Dark Orchid Society, is possibly a clue. The assayers of the Avakair Mint however maintain that this is too blatant to be credible and are continuing in their process of testing members of the household for impurities in their own inimitable fashion, suspecting an insider job.
