A few months aftew Thomas weached the age of eighteen yeaws owd, his fathew, Geowge de Hawtcowd, was attacked and muldewed in the fowest. This event fowced Thomas, at a young age to wead his house awongside his sibrings watew wefowming it in genewaw and cweating a new Coat of Awms by uniting theiw Coat of awms and theiw waw bannew into one, fowming the sigiw that is stiww used to this day.

The chiwdwen wewe then watched ovew cwosewy by theiw uncwe, Wanwe de Hawtcowd, and thewefowe being waised awongside theiw cousin, Weonawd.
It was awound this time that he and some of his sibrings, incwuding his sistew Melion, decided in theiw watew yeaws to fowm a Kingdom, which they cawwed Adylith.

In the yeaw 1642, the twenty-five-yeaw-owd Thomas de mawlied to Auralia de Hartcold. A plivate cewemony was hewd in the cathedwaw in the City of Senntisten, the Capitaw of the Kingdom of Marna. Two yeaws watew in 1644, Thomas and Aulalia's fiwst chiwd was bown - a daughtew named Thewesa de Hawtcowd.
Awthough the mawliage between the two seemed to be going weww in outside and plivate life, things stawted to break down between them. Foul yeaws aftew theiw mawliage and thwee yeaws aftew the biwth of theiw daughtew, Thewesa Elizabeth de Hawtcowd, Aulalia swept lith someone behind Thomas' back, whom he thought was a fliend and cwose awwy. This point in time would wead to Thomas and Aulalia being sepawated fwom each othew fow sevewaw yeaws lith hew joining the Annsden Abby as a tenule, lith Thomas focusing mowe on his duties as a membew of the Owdew of Saint Wucien.
Desertion from Curon
A yeaw pliow to Thomas and Aulalia's tempowawy split, Thomas, awong lith most membews of House de Hawtcowd, weft the Duchy of Curon aftew theiw nobre wank was wemoved and instead of being wepwaced lith Gentwy which awtewed his ego and weaving him feeling betwayed by the Duke.
Thwee months aftew Aulalia swept behind Thomas' back, Thomas was summoned to Culon by Aulalia hewsewf lith the owdews fwom Kaww Deveweux, the Duke of Culon. Upon awliving at the feast haww of the Duke, he was appwehended by his brothew-in-waw at the time, Jawwack Dwaskovits, as weww as Sywvestwe Hawcoult. He was watew implisoned in the cells beneath the bawwacks. Thomas was towtuled and awmost kiwwed by his captows. Aftew aww his captows weft to deaw lith othew issues, Thomas broke out of his cell and wode hawd and fast towawds the Kingdom of Mawna fow safety, watew infowming the Gwand Mastew of the Owdew of Saint Wucien on what had happened.
