| | |
| '''Kaiser Hjalmar Redquill''' (born in [[Haraldsborg]] in 1616 as '''Audun Joel of the Houses of Ayreon-Kalirion and the Descendants of Freya''', is the current and 153rd [[Kaiser]] of [[Shireroth]] since 1639. | |
| | |
| He is a member of the [[Imperial Bloodline]] of [[Line of Ayreon-Kalirion|Ayreon-Kalirion]], the [[House of Ayreon-Kalirion|House of the same name]], and several branches of the [[House of Ettlingar Freyu|House of the Descendants of Freyja]], including its Imperial and [[Froyalanish Branch of the House of Ettlingar Freyu|Froyalanish]] Branches. He also belongs to the [[Royal Family of Elwynn]], which is also known as the [[House of Orchids]]. Prince Audun Joel is third in [[Line of Succession to the White Orchid Throne|line]] to the [[White Orchid Throne]] and therefore holds the title of [[Earl of Markland]].

| ==Childhood==
| |
| Prince Audun Joel was born from the marriage between the [[Storjarl]] [[Hallbjörn Haraldsson]] of the Houses of [[House of Ayreon-Kalirion|Ayreon-Kalirion]] and of the [[House of Ettlingar Freyu|Descendants of Freyja]] and the Storjarla [[Esther Ayreon-Kalirion|Esther Maryam Amirdokhtar]] of the Houses of Ayreon-Kalirion and of the Descendants of Freyja. Aside from his deceased brother the [[Jonathan Ayreon-Kalirion|Prince Jonathan of Elwynn]], Prince Audun Joel has two siblings, an elder sister, [[Fjǫrleif Hallbjörnsdóttir|Princess Fjǫrleif of Elwynn]], and his elder identical twin brother [[King Noah of Elwynn]].

| Audun Joel grew up in Haraldsborg. When only two years old, assassins broke into his home and killed his mother. If it had not been for his elder brother, Jonathan, sounding the alarm, the three brothers would probably have died too. Audun's childhood was quiet and happy, nonetheless. Upon Jonathan's ascension to the White Orchid Throne in 1618, the twins began visiting Shireroth and Elwynn. Seeing that his younger brothers were deeply in love with Elwynn, Jonathan abdicated the throne in 1623, allowing Noah to become sovereign Prince of Elwynn (later king). As such, Audun permanently relocated to Elwynn.

| As a child, he knew that he would always be the second to his twin brother. As such, Audun began fostering other interests outside of the serene/royal court. Music was one. As a young teenager, he managed to convince his friends to start an underground rock band called the High Street Boys, but, once their single "I just can't wait to be King" hit the charts, it became impossible for him to hide his identity. He withdrew from the band a staff member at the band's record company leaked his name on the Elwnet. Nonetheless, Audun Joel still loves singing. His brother Jonathan once said that the best way to differentiate between the two identitical twins is to ask them to sing. The one with the widest range and clearest tone would be Audun. Audun takes pride in that he shares his last name Ayreon with the [[Ayreon|Cedrist god of music with the same name]], and finds it very fitting. Still, to this day, he is active in composing, though he uses a secret pseudonym, known only to his family.

| | |
| Audun Joel was named [[Count]] of [[Araxion]] upon achieving legal age of majority. Since then he has been active in the King's [[Council of Eliria|privy council at Eliria]]. In 1635, once his father became Kaiser, he was appointed [[Imperial Advisor|Imperial Advisory Council]]. Secret to everyone else was Kaiser Hjalmar's intentions to use that role to groom Audun Joel to become[[The Kaiser|Kaisership]]. True to his intentions, Kaiser Hjalmar abdicated the Golden Mango Throne to Prince Audun Joel in 1639, taking on the name Hjalmar Redquill in honour of his father.
