- Salvatore Zaffria + (Salvatore was a younger son, and like many … Salvatore was a younger son, and like many younger sons for whom the priesthood is an uninteresting option, he chose war, and he chose it whole-heartedly. He married young, out of duty, to a young woman who was born in the Isles. They weren't entirely a match but neither were they entirely a mismatch; neither madly in love nor at each other's throats. She never was interested in taking up arms, but engrossed herself in the diplomatic tensions of Gemecitta, particularly the tangled problem of House Zaffria and House Rubino. When she died, he never entirely believed that it was not because of some misstep in relation to Duchess Liavetta or Duke Giovanni. Still, she was dead, and he was left with an eight-year-old girl to raise. Fine. Salvatore mostly set her aside to the care of her nurses and threw himself all the harder into his duty. He was a horseman; he was a leader; he was a warrior; the more time he was forced to spend in politics, the more he was convinced he was terrible at them. He never was a particular fan of Duke Marco and his insipid blood, so he was wary about his daughter's rise to power. Yet Duchess Sylvie's grace and competence have been undeniable since her accession, and his close blood tie to his own niece, Lady Dafne, who has been made Voice, combined with this to secure and solidify his loyalty. Like many of the older Zaffrias and Rubinos, he's still not really sure about this unity thing. But with the banners called and an abyssal war on the doorstep, who is Salvatore to disagree?he doorstep, who is Salvatore to disagree?)
