Norland
In light of Norland’s countless combative opportunities and exploits, Edward viewed Norland as a natural fit for himself. He enlisted in its military at the start of King Kavier Ruric’s reign. Joining the newly reformed Reiksguard, Edward quickly rose through the ranks, though once reaching the rank of Marshal, he refused to take they vacant position, hence allowing Avalon Silversteed to take it. Edward continued to serve both loyally and faithfully under Javier Ruric, making an established name for himself. Edward bravely defeated many of House Romstun’s most elite warriors in single combat.
Following the decisive victory in the Romstun War, conflict between the Kingdom of Norland and the Holy Orenian Empire began, in which countless engagements would take place. Edward reluctantly began to take command of Norlandic Warbands due to seeing others merely unfit and incompetent for the given position. Not long after, in 1631, Javier Ruric knighted Edward due to his unmatched capabilities in combat and natural talent for command.
After King Javier’s decisive victory at the Battle of the Bloody Road, Javier abdicated. Edward was promptly dispirited by this, in light of them becoming close friends. Despite this, Edward pursued to serve Norland loyally, and fought bravely in the Siege of Vjorhelm. Edward managed to slay countless foes prior to fleeing from the battle. Following the siege, Ser Edward left Norland due they incompetency of Jory Ruric’s failed reign.
