Ordelia, located in the southern Leicester Alliance and near the border with the Adrestian Empire, is the domain of House Ordelia.
Profile
The County of Ordelia is separated from the Viscounty of Hrym in the Adrestian Empire by the Airmid River.
In Imperial Year 1167, House Hrym attempted to defect from the Empire to the Alliance out of opposition to Emperor Ionius IX's policy of power centralization. House Ordelia provided aid to Hrym, but the Imperial army ultimately prevailed and quashed the rebellion. In retaliation for assisting House Hrym, the Empire began interfering in House Ordelia's internal affairs, damaging its noble standing within the Alliance. At only two years of age, Lysithea, the first daughter and heir of House Ordelia, was caught up in the tumult.
