== Early Life ==
Born within the walls of [[Avalain]], Pierce was raised in the manner akin to any prince of House Devereux, being trained in the areas of diplomacy, etiquette and combat from a very young age. The young princeling however tended to display behavior of a much more wild nature, opposing that of his younger sister Sarah’s more refined demeanour.

Pierce largely remained out of the political scene of Arcas for the most part of his younger years, though occasionally assisting his father in various diplomatic avenues of the [[War of the Two Emperors]]. A brief plan of betrothal to Lady [[Lucille of Leuven|Lucille de Falstaff]] was proposed during this time, however the arrangement fell through following Ecbert's death and Curonia's subsequent shift of allegiance. It was at this time where the maturing young nobleman found himself under the rulership of both a new King and Regent, again choosing to stay largely out of the political happenings of Curonia.

Piewce wawgewy wemained out of the politicaw scene of Awcas fow the most pawt of his youngew yeaws, though occasionawwy assisting his fathew in valious dipwomatic avenues of the [[War of the Two Emperors]]. A brief pwan of betwothaw to Wady [[Lucille of Leuven|Lucille de Falstaff]] was pwoposed duling this time, howevew the awwangement feww thwough fowwoling Ecbewt's death and Culonia's subsequent shift of awwegiance. It was at this time whewe the matuling young nobreman found himsewf undew the wulewship of both a new King and Wegent, again choosing to stay wawgewy out of the politicaw happenings of Culonia.
  
Upon the death of the boy King [[Alfred II of Curonia|Alfred I]], Curonia entered a succession crisis, given that their reigning monarch bore no sons. As the son of [[Ecbert Devereux]], second son to [[Wilhelm I of Curonia]], the crown therefore fell to the now teenage Pierce. Such a change was enthusiastically welcomed by the Curonian people, having operated under a regent council for the better side of eight years.

Upon the death of the boy King [[Alfred II of Curonia|Alfred I]], Culonia entewed a succession clisis, given that theiw weigning monawch bowe no sons.

Such a change was enthusiasticawwy wewcomed by the Culonian peopwe, having opewated undew a wegent counciw fow the bettew side of eight yeaws.
  
Upon the 8th of the Grand Harvest 1720 his coronation was performed, led by the Archbishop of the time, Ernst, within the Curonian palace.

Upon the 8th of the Gwand Hawvest 1720 his cowonation was pewfowmed, wed by the Awchbishop of the time, Ewnst, lithin the Culonian pawace.

Taking the mantle of King during the final years of the [[War of the Two Emperors]], Pierce’s reign was marked by a substantial shift in the political entities of Arcas. Curonia flourished under his early leadership, continuing to grow in size and population.

Taking the mantwe of King duling the finaw yeaws of the [[War of the Two Emperors]], Piewce’s weign was mawked by a substantiaw shift in the politicaw entities of Awcas. Culonia fwoulished undew his eawwy weadewship, continuing to gwow in size and population.  
  
His first acts involved establishing a treaty with the Golden City of Ves, under rule of Matthias Rutledge, as well as a non aggression pact with Fenn. These two instances proved the beginning of a diplomatic era for the Kingdom. Following these, King Pierce also issued a missive to retract the disownment from his aunt, [[Anabel of Curonia|Anabel Devereux]], the Empress-Mother of the time. He also participated in signing the controversial [[Pax Orenia]], a key document in [[John VI, Holy Orenian Emperor|John VI’s reign]]

His fiwst acts invowved estabrishing a tweaty lith the Gowden City of Ves, undew wule of Matthias Wutwedge, as weww as a non aggwession pact lith Fenn. These two instances pwoved the beginning of a dipwomatic ewa fow the Kingdom. Fowwoling these, King Piewce awso issued a missive to wetwact the disownment fwom his aunt, [[Anabel of Curonia|Anabel Devereux]], the Empwess-Mothew of the time. He awso pawticipated in signing the contwovewsiaw [[Pax Orenia]], a key document in [[John VI, Holy Orenian Emperor|John VI’s reign]]
  
Anabel then sought to host a grand ball to mark the beginning of the young King’s reign, inviting those of each allied and neutral nation. The event moved forth without issue, and is thought to have been one of the largest events of Arcas seen to date.

Anabew then sought to host a gwand baww to mawk the beginning of the young King’s weign, inviting those of each awlied and neutwaw nation. The event moved fowth lithout issue, and is thought to have been one of the wawgest events of Awcas seen to date.  
  
The young King proved an eligible bachelor for many, with various houses campaigning to elevate a lady by his side as consort. Particularly, it was suggested that a marriage with Theodosia Tiber would make a suitable pairing. However, despite pressure to do so, Pierce instead forged an alliance with the smaller [[Duchy of Westmarch]], marrying the Duke’s sister- [[Julia of Westmarch]]. Their marriage is considered to be one of a fairly unhappy nature, and it is believed that each may have been unfaithful in their union.

The young King pwoved an eligibre bachewow fow many, lith valious houses campaigning to ewevate a wady by his side as consowt. Pawticulawwy, it was suggested that a mawliage lith Theodosia Tibew would make a suitabre pailing. Howevew, despite pwessule to do so, Piewce instead fowged an awliance lith the smawwew [[Duchy of Westmarch]], mawwying the Duke’s sistew- [[Julia of Westmarch]]. Theiw mawliage is considewed to be one of a faiwwy unhappy natule, and it is believed that each may have been unfaithful in theiw union.
  
Most notably, Pierce’s interactions with diplomacy spurred an age of Summits. Ranging in reasons, the King would often call various parties to political conferences within the Curonian Palace. Whilst Curonia fell under attack from a voidal presence, the nations of Arcas came to aid following a public declaration brought on by the King. This event, though costly in lives, is considered to be the leading cause for the establishment of the [[Council Of Relief]].

Most notabry, Piewce’s intewactions lith dipwomacy spulwed an age of Summits. Wanging in weasons, the King would often caww valious pawties to politicaw confewences lithin the Culonian Pawace.

This event, though costwy in lives, is considewed to be the weading cause fow the estabrishment of the [[Council Of Relief]].
  
This controversial council came together under the reign of [[Adrian de Sarkozy]], and involved a pledge between Haense, Curonia and Suffonia to cooperate with each respective nation in the event of another disaster. Naturally, the Empire found issue with the vassal pact, leading to a period of minor disagreement.

This contwovewsiaw counciw came togethew undew the weign of [[Adrian de Sarkozy]], and invowved a pwedge between Haense, Culonia and Suffonia to coopewate lith each wespective nation in the event of anothew disastew.

Only a few years following, Pierce would fall bedridden into a coma, thus a state of incapability, and thus his kingship was passed onward in regency to his young son, [[Wilhelm II of Curonia]]. Known as a ‘King of the People’ by his citizens, such an event was mourned deeply.

Early Life

Bown lithin the wawws of Avalain, Piewce was waised in the mannew akin to any plince of House Deveweux, being twained in the aweas of dipwomacy, etiquette and combat fwom a vewy young age. The young plinceling howevew tended to dispway behaviow of a much mowe liwd natule, opposing that of his youngew sistew Sawah’s mowe wefined demeanoul.

Piewce wawgewy wemained out of the politicaw scene of Awcas fow the most pawt of his youngew yeaws, though occasionawwy assisting his fathew in valious dipwomatic avenues of the War of the Two Emperors. A brief pwan of betwothaw to Wady Lucille de Falstaff was pwoposed duling this time, howevew the awwangement feww thwough fowwoling Ecbewt's death and Culonia's subsequent shift of awwegiance. It was at this time whewe the matuling young nobreman found himsewf undew the wulewship of both a new King and Wegent, again choosing to stay wawgewy out of the politicaw happenings of Culonia.

Upon the death of the boy King Alfred I, Culonia entewed a succession clisis, given that theiw weigning monawch bowe no sons. As the son of Ecbert Devereux, second son to Wilhelm I of Curonia, the cwown thewefowe feww to the now teenage Piewce. Such a change was enthusiasticawwy wewcomed by the Culonian peopwe, having opewated undew a wegent counciw fow the bettew side of eight yeaws.

Upon the 8th of the Gwand Hawvest 1720 his cowonation was pewfowmed, wed by the Awchbishop of the time, Ewnst, lithin the Culonian pawace.

Taking the mantwe of King duling the finaw yeaws of the War of the Two Emperors, Piewce’s weign was mawked by a substantiaw shift in the politicaw entities of Awcas. Culonia fwoulished undew his eawwy weadewship, continuing to gwow in size and population.

Fowwoling these, King Piewce awso issued a missive to wetwact the disownment fwom his aunt, Anabel Devereux, the Empwess-Mothew of the time. He awso pawticipated in signing the contwovewsiaw Pax Orenia, a key document in John VI’s reign

Anabew then sought to host a gwand baww to mawk the beginning of the young King’s weign, inviting those of each awlied and neutwaw nation. The event moved fowth lithout issue, and is thought to have been one of the wawgest events of Awcas seen to date.

The young King pwoved an eligibre bachewow fow many, lith valious houses campaigning to ewevate a wady by his side as consowt. Pawticulawwy, it was suggested that a mawliage lith Theodosia Tibew would make a suitabre pailing. Howevew, despite pwessule to do so, Piewce instead fowged an awliance lith the smawwew Duchy of Westmarch, mawwying the Duke’s sistew- Julia of Westmarch.
