[pridaxus-worldbuilding]

The last ruling family of the Pagonis family of Amphinis, the longest reigning dynasty for Amphinis. At the head of it was Lady Noelani. She lived to be 120 years old and saw Amphinis at its peak of stability as well as law and order. Ianthe, Gimoaldo, Sebastien, and Oria were her spouses. Despite Amphinis’ positive feelings towards polyamory, Noelani notoriously didn’t take multiple lovers at once. The Pagonis family stayed relevant even after Ilias’ loss of the election due to the political connections that Noelani successfully made.

Ianthe was her first wife, and the person she views as the love of her life. They were together when Noelani’s grandmother was still in charge and she did not like Ianthe for her siren heritage. To get her favorite granddaughter away from her “Vice” Ianthe was sent away to do trials for Noelani’s grandmother, ultimately dying one one of these voyages, to the heartbreak and dismay of Noelani

Immediately after she was forced to be with Gimoaldo and the pair despised each other. They had one child together Ilias before immediately separating socially. They occasionally attended events together for the next 10 years until Noelani became the Elector. Although he tried to revive their relationship, she refused and found a new partner shortly after

Partner number 3 was Sebastien whom she shared the best years of her life with together they raised Ilias and their 5 other children Naia, Venilia, Bo, Marea, and Merrick. Although they weren’t in live they enjoyed a loving relationship and Noelani was inevitably distraught when he died.

She refused all relationships for the next 10 years until Oria, Oria had been a close friend of Sebastien and Noelani for years but became a caretaker for her in her later years. The two developed a more platonic with romantic elements relationship until Noelani’s death around 40 years later
