Feodor May (4th of Snow's Maiden, 1803 - 1883 ) was a Haeseni humanist artist, ambassador and judge, credited by some to be the embodiment of a Haeseni cultural renaissance because of his many written works, poetry and compositions. He is best known internationally for composing the Haeseni National Anthem and writing the voluminous thespian tragic novel, The Tragedy of Allrik, among a plethera of other books of various genres.
Career
Early Career
In a way May's career began with that of his great grandfather, Sir Terrence May, who was Lord Palatine of Haense and President of Oren among holding other positions. Ever since the days of the shining star that was Sir Terrence, the May family had been regarded gentry in Haense who quietly lived in the background. Feodor May's father, Andrik, sent him to go study law (reportedly at the Royal Academy of Saint Charles) in an effort to have his son follow in his grandfather's footsteps one day. Through his education as well as his family's relations with the Haeseni upper class, Feodor managed to start his career off well, being appointed the new Haeseni ambassador to Urguan in 1822, when May was just 19 years of age. It was also around this time that May is known to have taken a liking to the fine arts, with his first work, "Cawing of the Crow", a compilation of Haeseni poetry, being published the year after.
Jovenaarship
Not long after being appointed the Haeseni Ambassador to Urguan the Lord Palatine, Duke Maric of Vidaus at the time, approached May with the request for him to become a Jovenaar (Haeseni Judge). With his law studies fresh in mind, May happily obliged. His career as a Jovenaar was not to last however. In 1832 he was strongarmed into resigning from his position by Lukas Rakoczy due to allegations of political and judicial bias over May's frequent contact with Lord Palatine Adrian Colborn and his work, as well as May supposedly giving legal advice to the House of Barclay.
