When Duke Stephen of Carnatia (Jan's grandson through his daughter Milena) died at the young age of 17 in 1546, the succession of the duchy was in crisis. Stephen had three other brothers: Waldemar, Francis, and Lothar, yet neither three were able to inherit (Waldemar was serving in [[Aeldin]] and unable to be contacted in a timely fashion, Francis had refused outright, and Lothar was in training for priesthood), and with those three unable to inherit, the Duchy of Carnatia faced a succession crisis. Some supported the son of the late Duke Siguine of Haense, [[Peter of Haense|Petyr Barbanov]], however [[John I, Holy Orenian Emperor|John I]] refused to have a [[House of Barbanov|Barbovic]] duke in fear of northern unrest.
