Mycale had on his side [[Lucius Errikale]], Duke of Seleucar and the highest of the Lords, as well as [[Castomira Brangwin]], a duchess who held little political power but was influential nonetheless. Suppporting Catarin was [[Orin Grandier]], Prime Minister of the Empire, and a man called [[Lucaine Pyramides]], who had originally been hired as an assassin by Castomira but had fallen in love with his target, Catarin, and joined her cause. | Mycale had on his side [[Lucius Errikale]], Duke of Seleucar and the highest of the Lords, as well as [[Castomira Brangwin]], a duchess who held little political power but was influential nonetheless.
