On the Tradition of Marriage in House Two Tower

House Two Tower has a very formal marriage arrangement, which was developed to promote the health of its heirs and secure alliances, while ensuring there are never significant rival claimants to any of its holdings.

Usually, all three Earls of House Two Tower (Lothan, Senton, and Kenton) were cousins of some degree.  Two of these earls would take wives outside the house, while one of them would enter an arranged marriage with one of his cousin's sisters.  For example, Codder, the last Earl of Senton, married Odette, while his first cousin, Walder, likewise married a woman from outside the House.  However, Oswulf, Codder's second cousin, married Ethel, Codder's older sister.

Spoiler: The Original Epilogue

So, this is a spoiler post, but I don't feel to guilty.  These aren't spoilers for this game.

Instead, these are spoilers for the previous trilogy... the game that I ran before at three conventions between 2006 and 2008.  We have sufficiently departed from the timeline to put them in here.  You won't find too many of your characters (partly because neither Vincia, nor any clan apart from the Onellons, existed in this continuity), and most of the individuals here have not been introduced.  Further, some are so far from their original concept that it's impossible even call them the same character.  But, because I think it's thematically appropriate, I thought I would put it here.

Also, it is slightly edited.  Just saying.

Anyways, spoilers behind the cut.
