Revision as of 02:52, 13 September 2014

Template:Family infobox House Toren is a ruling noble house within the Circle Universe. It currently rules over the country of Emelan, which is a large duchy. Members of House Toren have ruled over Emelan for over eight hundred years, so it is a very old noble house. The current head of the house is Vedris IV, as the current Duke.

House Toren has a good relationship with other noble families from other countries, showing how Mattin fer Toren, the nephew of Duke Vedris, and Amiliane fa Landreg, the aunt of the Empress of Namorn were able to wed.

Within their home country of Emelan it is the Duke's right to choose his heir from certain members of his family, rather than the Duke's eldest child. It is unknown how far away a relation can be for an heir to be chosen. However it is known that the Duke can go as far as choose his/her great-nephew or niece over his/her own children. There have been several mentions that Duke Vedris will choose his great-niece Sandrilene fa Toren over his own sons, but nothing has been made official.[1]

Future Appearances

Tamora Pierce has expressed interest in creating a book for Sandry, with a more political tone. [8] If this would occur it would be probably that more of the family's past and current members and exploits would be revealed.
