“Fairweather Co. ran at the behest of Capt. Arthur Faire; a man who spent fewer waking moments thinking about his wife than the seconds he thought about his children. A ruthless childhood and very illegal rise to power solidified the belief that to live more and more extravagantly at any cost was the only thing that mattered, which, after several years of near-misses, grew to the logical conclusion that heirs were required to continue this expansion after death. 
Ms Relia Prander was a slender lady who loved evening tea, money, and parabola linen, as she was too sheltered to love anything else. When Captain Faire inquired about tea at the Prander house, and proposed two days later with three trunks of spider silk for a wedding dress, she welcomed her prison.
Despite living in the same house, their very terse, separate lives led to only two children: Westlie, and Morgan. Predictably, Captain Faire wanted boys, but settled for ambiguous names since he couldn’t be bothered to keep trying. Since Westlie was the eldest, she received brief presents of attention in the form of stern looks, angry lectures about tutors, and chores around the ships. If Morgan walked in the room the most notice she gathered was a sullen look; in general, Captain Faire pretended she didn’t exist. This was somewhat balanced since Relia did show a slight fondness for Morgan, often the more cheerful of the two,  and she’d given up Westlie as Arthur’s property the moment she was born. However, the great lengths of her affection stretched to doing Morgan’s hair. Children seemed to startle her, including her own. So thus lived the Faire family.”

Spent way too many hours on this but so worth it.
