Reign

Archduke of Ubuntu

Early Reign

Cyprien was granted the title 'Archduke of Ubuntu' upon his twelfth Birthday by his Mother, Paramount Leika I of Vikela. This title also encompassed lands for him to rule over as he saw fit. Due to Cyprien's young age, he was given a Bannerman named Lorec Bani Stormheart, who would also serve as his Regent until he came of age. He was also given Flour, a musin to serve as another Bannerman in his service. Despite his age, the young Lord was unwavering in his determination to do what he could for his new domain. With a great haste, he would order the restoration of his lands, as years of neglect had caused parts to fall into ruin. After a few short years of restoration efforts, the land was back to a place of beauty, one which Cyprien was quite pleased with. The young Lord would name his keep, Feza.

Later Reign

As Cyprien grew older, he wished for his lands to gain even more beauty, and for it to be a place for others to admire and enjoy as well. Thus, he started on a new construction project, the expansion and renovation of his realm. He ordered several abodes to be constructed, as well as the keep to be overhauled.
