It had been a month since the Ascendancy, as some had called it. The day when Artorigas Wessex had returned a member of the Sith Eternal and removed his Father and Brother from the line of power within the House of Wessex. Some damage had come to the castle from but it was superficial at best and most had been patched up within a few weeks. The Sith looked up to see some of the scaring from the blaster fire still evident on the beautifully carved ceiling, he had hoped that it would have been done by now but it was too late.
Hostile activities are best accepted by lavishness, so Artorigas had chosen to use what assets he had brought back with him from his travels through Sith space to host a small party within the great hall at Castle Wessex. It was a small gathering around eighty people, most nobility big and small from across Serenno. All three of his sisters were here with him, Pena and Dreanna with their husbands and growing broods sat upon their respective tables. His youngest sister Corneila, still unwed was sat at the head table with him. His mother had been invited but she chose to stay within her own private suite, less view upon her usurping son.
Artorigas knew it would take some time for his mother to at least accept what had happened the month before, though he doubted she would ever forgive him. His sisters seemed less bothered but he wasn't sure if that was just because they had their own lives to now deal with. The great hall was a bustle of noise as some of the last remaining guests arrived, all dressed in finery as expected at such a gathering. He smiled over at his little sister "Perhaps we will find you a husband today." She stuck her tongue out at him in response, a cheeky grin on her face.
