Aru-Artenia Elessar is the second youngest child of King Aragorn, and Arwen Elessar making her a member of House Elessar of Gondor. Artenia has two siblings in Ildarion, and Eldarion Elessar, of which Eldarion is a well known commander in the south east corridor of Gondor, while her brother Ildarion has remained steadfast and determined in defending the northeastern approach into Gondor. Known as somewhat of a wild child she has become romantically linked with many men in Gondor, but she would marry James Tampetty of whom she attempted to love and be a good wife to but he was believed dead after the Trolloc ambush in the north. Artenia Elessar also has one child with Garrett Elbertson of whom she came to love while she visited him while he was sick in the Minas Tirith hospital and their child Ranfin Elessar is still very young at the time of Westros.

Artenia Elessar is the third son of Aragorn Elessar and thus she was born into one of the most royal and long lived families in the entire continent. Artenia at an early age begin to show signs of a certain kind of insanity of which no one could diagnose but was a sort of schizophrenia. After doctor after doctor couldn't help her she learned to somewhat live with her issues, and would become known for the fact that she had very little impulse control due to her turning towards alcohol so that she could somewhat mitigate the voices in her head. She was forced to abort several children as noblemen attempted to impregnate the daughter of the king, and it wasn't until she met James Tampetty that she finally knew any kind of real affection, and she would marry him shortly afterwards.

Characteristics[]

She has very little control over her impulses due to suffering from a form of schizophrenia, and despite attempts at fixing herself all she has done is cause herself pain and emotional heartache. and this has led to her reputation being what it is now.

Personality[]

If one looks past her severe problems she is an incredibly kind young women, who is a sufferer of some severe problems but otherwise cares about everyone she meets, and attempts to improve the lives of her people. This emotional care has often been overlooked in favor of simply believing shes whore.

History[]

Early History[]

Artenia Elessar was born in Osgiliath during a trip there that Arwen was taking in the belief that she still had time before Artenia would be born. This means she is the first Elessar child to be born anywhere outside of Minus Tirith in many generations.

Perversion[]

At the age of fourteen Artenia begin to have difficulty with headaches, and in an attempt to fix this she went to a doctor - who was silently a deep opponent of the Elessar Family - and the doctor gave her a herb which she could use to get rid of the headaches. The purpose of the herb was in fact not to fix her headaches but in fact was meant to induce madness in any who used it.

So after taking the herb for the days she was told to she found the headaches were gone but she begin hearing voices in her head. With this new problem she returned to the doctor but discovered that he was no longer there and he had shut down his entire medical facility. Beyond scared, but to afraid to tell her family that she heard voices she begin to turn to alcohol which she discovered dulled the noise of the voices. This alcohol though also unleashed a wild side in the usually kind, and emotionally thoughtful young women, and this wild side was taken advantage of by many noblemen in Gondor.

James Tampetty[]

As she was taken advantage of more and more by the nobles her father Aragorn begin to hear news of this and wanted to put a stop to it immediatly. He told her directly that he was disapointed and that she needed to calm down or else, and while she wanted with everything to listen to him her desires were too strong for her to resist and she continued down the dark path. In her darkness she found her first light when she met the kind James Tampetty who while being her personal gaurd for some time she was too caught up in her own things to notice him. When she did she discovered a man that loved her with all of his heart and soon after this she became pregnant with his child, and during this time she begin searching for a way to make the desires calm down so that she could be the wife that James deserved. In this search the pregnant Artenia travelled to the island of Frey where she met with a medicine women who prescribed her a medicine that would cause her debilitating pain but in the end would heal her weakeness. Desperate for something to fix herself she begin using the medicine which as she was told caused her immense pain to the point that she was unbearable to be around much of the time.

The Journey[]

Main Article : The Journey

Meeting Gondor
I will say what I think matters about you. The real important parts of who you are your grace. I know that you have fought the enemies of humanity for your entire life. You love your family. You love your people. You have lived your life with honor. These are the only things that define who you are to me.

Meeting Gondor[]

Aru-Artenia Elessar Cover2
I understand your position Princess. I am no one to you. I am just a person who looks like the man who betrayed your kingdom. I have spent my entire life living with the idea that I was my father. It was only a few weeks ago that I truly came to understand how far my father had gone. Trust me when I say that I am not my father.
William Lovie III.

Edward Cullen joins William in meeting with Carlisle Cullen of whom describes to the group the true details of Gondor, and the House Elessar members of whom they quickly discover have lived a very tough life. The brief historical background of Gondor is given to William by Carlisle Cullen under the direction of Jacob Vorn of whom wants him to know the damage that has been done to Gondor over the years so he can better understand why they trust with such difficulty. Following this the group (Jasper Hale, Edward Cullen, Eddard Starke, and Tyrek Lannister) follows William into the meeting with King Aragorn Elessar of whom has several of his own men in the meeting including his daughter Aru-Artenia Elessar. At first the meeting goes poorly as Aragorn is understandably mad about the recent Gondor-Stormwind War, and princess Artenia remarks at how similar William looks to his father including even his voice which somewhat derails things until William is able to convince him of his own sincerity and desire to see the Gondor-Lucerne relationship reborn. Over the course of the conversation he watches as the prince has a positive reaction from the increasingly jaded king of whom promises to side with William if they assist Gondor in relieving the City of Minus Ithil. Leaving the tent following the discussion he watches Jasper be met by Lanna Lannister and witnesses the two discuss there shared love for each other, and he does not reveal to her his time with Alice. Jasper following the departure of Lanna would see Edward watching him and Edward tried to avoid a fight by walking away, but Jasper followed him out of the camp where he walked into the snow outside the walls of the camp and the two get into a fist fight which ends only when Marcel Lovie II. arrives and breaks the two up. Edward and Marcel walk together and talk about the things in Marcel's life and he is proud that even among everything that fell apart with William his cousin Marcel has turned out so well.

Seeing her made me feel better then I had in months.
Edward Cullen

Following this Edward returns to his tent where he finds Arnhilda Highdor sitting on a chair outside his tent speaking with Thomas and seeing her brings a true smile to his face and without thinking he brings her into a hug. Taking her inside he starts crying without even thinking, and she rubs his back as he cries finally for the first time since he last saw Hillary he is able to talk to someone without fear.

End of Darkness
Look at the world father. You were born into this land. You grew up here. These people swore their lives to you. How could you have done all of this? Look at everything you have done. You destroyed a city. Killed hundreds of good men out of fear. Is this how you want to be remembered father. Is this the world you want to leave behind? I know you were a good person once. Don't end it all here. Don't do this. For me father. For everything I supposedly mean to you. Don't do this.


``I know that your still angry with me but let me tell you about the people your going to deal with.``

``Don`t speak to us as if we know nothing about Gondor.``

``You know exactly what you should know for your age. You know that Gondor is a peaceful but worn down kingdom to the east of Lucerne that is populated by a strange non-germanic human population. You know King Aragorn Elessar is the second of his name, and that he has three children of which one will be there tommarow. But do you know anything real.``

``We do not have all day father you may have to tell us what you can in a short time.``

``Gondor was founded...``

``Honestly Lord Cullen...``

``Yes Emmett this is all very important.`` He stopped glaring at Emmett and begin looking at the three of us again. ``Gondor was founded following the Downfall of Numeron of which you know somewhat about. Gondor as time went on lost more and more ground to the Orcs of Mordor, and these Orcs are led by the Dark Lord Sauron. This Dark Lord convinsed many of Gondor`s allies to turn on them and this all culminated in the Gondor Civil War. Brother fought brother, and Gondor bled for years."

"Who were these brothers that turned the Gondorians"

"Many turned on Gondor while there back was down, and it is this fact that makes what we did to them all the worse."

"How did they defeat Mordor back then?" 

"In the end Aragorn`s father the king before he was, would die alongside many in his family and thousands of others until finally Mordor was defeated. Aragorn was crowned king following that great victory. That was some two hundred years ago.`` I could see they hated Carlisle but he was right. They had spent so much of their time angry at the world over a thing they couldn't even remember, and one of the consequences was their learning.

``So he is hundreds of years old.`` Carlisle looked shocked that William was asking him something, but he quickly pushed the feeling away and jumped at the oppurtunity to once again teach William.

``You knew the Numenorians were long lived, but what they do not speak of in our lessons are the fact that the Numenorians are more then long lived. They do not die by any amount of years passing them by."

"So they are like Elves?"

"There ancestors were Bretonians. They were human slaves brought to the once great island of Atlantis, and while there they were the slaves of the High Elves of Atmer. From this slavery they mingled with there elven garrison creating the group we know now as the Numenorians."

"How is that an immortal race has fallen so far then father?"

"It is important to know son, that Gondor while ancient and strong fights against enemies on all sides, including ours.``

``So they are besieged now by Mordor.``

``They are my prince.``

``So what help can they offer if they are as weak and defeated as they are.``

``They may be low, but they can still muster thousands of men at arms and cavalry. If we help them we may erase the damage of your father`s war against them many short years ago.``

"Do you we truly need there troops so much?"

"The main thing they may bring to us my prince is something not many have thought of."

"That would be?"

"They maintain a strong relationship with the Sindari Elves of High Forest. Enigmatic and completely isolated from the world the Gondorians are said to be the only people who can actually contact them without fear."

End of Darkness
Look at the world father. You were born into this land. You grew up here. These people swore their lives to you. How could you have done all of this? Look at everything you have done. You destroyed a city. Killed hundreds of good men out of fear. Is this how you want to be remembered father. Is this the world you want to leave behind? I know you were a good person once. Don't end it all here. Don't do this. For me father. For everything I supposedly mean to you. Don't do this.


``So you are the son of Bill Lovie, King of the Valley.`` He said it in a calm voice, but there was malice behind the kindness he was trying to put forth. I could see one of them men sitting at the table behind him glaring at me, and I knew this was a bad start. The men at his table wore intricate armor, and thinking on the earlier conversation with Carlisle I wonder how many of the men sitting at the table of King Elessar had lost family, or at the least people to my fathers war.

``I am.`` He stood silent so I moved forward towards him and tried to keep the conversation going. ``Your reputation comes before you King Elessar.``

``Does it.`` He turned his large frame away from me walking towards the table to pick up an emblem from the table. ``Tell me young prince. What do your stories tell you about who I am.``

``I must tell you truthfully your grace.``

``Honesty would be a nice change from your people.``

``I could tell you I have read of your victory in your civil war. I could say that I knew you had three children. I could say all of that and it would be true.``

``But what shall you say of me, prince.``

``I will say what I think matters about you. We have learned that you have fought the enemies of humanity for your entire life. You love your family. You love your people. These are the only things that define who you are to me.``

Nortburg Tournament of 5125

Nortburg Tournament of 5125[]

Main Article : Nortburg Tournament of 5125

Bella Swan Cover1
A tournament signals that the reign of the new king will be one of great success. I know that there is much to do, and no one understands that as much as I do. But we must also look to consolidate our holdings. You have a lot of goodwill and this will only help us later your grace.
Jacob Vorn IV.

Following the crowning of William Lovie III. as the new King of Lucerne he met with his council within the Lucernian capital and they went bout devising there next steps of action. Following some of the more extensive plans he met with the Shadow Council, and Jacob Vorn IV. of whom now stood as the King's Archbishop and the group would decide they needed to know more about the regions around them and also repair damage and they would do this by planning a tournament at Nortburg and invite foreign dignitaries to the tournament alongside the most influential of nobles of Lucerne. Also invited to the Tournament would be the Trachtenberg family of whom were the blood cousins of William Lovie incluing his uncle Frank Trachtenberg, and two cousins Michelle Trachtenberg, and Kristen Trachtenberg all of whom William wanted to repair relationships with most specifically with Michelle who he came to understand had been treated quite terribly by his father. The Trachtenberg side of the family had become distant due to several instances, most notably the imprisonment of Bill Lovie's cousin Katia Lovie the Matriarch of House Trachtenberg in the city of Berne.

True Sons of Lucerne[]
Hanna Arryn Cover Large1
William you need to understand that Berne is hell itself. Your brother is losing control more and more every day. We are attempting to control the situation but its a tinder box waiting to explode.
Hanna Arryn

A large force under a white flag and led by Kieth Schwartz, and Alistair Bedregen arrives at the tournament ground carrying also the flag of the True Sons of Lucerne. The arrival of these True Sons would cause William himself accompanied by the Shadow Council and Charlie Swan to confront them and while at first wanting to bar them from the tournament as they were basically traitors the arrival of Hanna Arryn, and Aria Arryn would lead to William speaking privately with Hanna and Aria. Speaking to the two alongside Leven Martell, and Charlie Swan he would discover that the situation in Berne was growing completely out of control and that was why they had agreed to all the demands of Sean Lovie and had come here. Seeing that his friends were in grave danger he would agree to play along with the plans of the True Sons and allowed Danzal to take part in the tournament. Following this meeting with Hanna and Aria he would meet with Kieth Schwartz who was like an uncle to him during his childhood and the two would talk over everything that had happened with Kieth admitting to everything and for the first time giving William a true glimpse at what Bill had been going through and why he had chosen to do all the things that he had done. Another of the members of the group to come under the flag was Harrold Hardyng of whom as a dire hard member of the rebellion against Sean Lovie would sneak himself into the force with the help of Alistair and when he arrived he met with Teri-Jacob Vorn IV. and together in secret the two worked out steps for Harrold to take to help with the eventual retaking of Berne.

"Tell me about Amber."

"She is safe but misses you dearly."


"I know you may not feel the same way, but I want you to know how truly amazing it is to see you again Will." His face rose with a smile as he looked at me and it brought me back to thinking about the man who had helped teach me how to swim when I was a boy. He was a constant throughout my youth taking on my fathers role for those months when he could barely leave the tower.

"You know I cannot same the same. And you know why."

"I want you to know that I am sorry. I want you to know that he is sorry."

"Do not speak of him here or this conversation will end."

"That hatred that you feel. That's what drove him William."

"I know my friends would never let me do the things you let him do."

"Your friends love you. As your fathers love him."

"Love doesn't mean you let those you love go mad with no attempt to stop them."

"You look at it now and believe that if you started talking about killing your own daughter that what Jasper would stop you. Leven would stop you."

"They would. As you fucking should have!" I knew I was being too loud. The tournament was not even close to starting so the numbers here were low, but this was all so fresh. I could not be seen as being my father.

"They would do as we did. They would speak to you like I spoke to your father. I told him of the madness of what he was thinking. I told him that he had lost himself in that damn book. I did everything your friends would do. The only further step I could have taken was the one thing I could not do."

"They would."

"Look me in the eyes William and tell me that you truly believe that one of those people hovering outside this tent would ever raise a sword against you."

Following the conversation between Kieth, and William Kieth would leave the tournament as he was a soldier of Bill Lovie and not Sean Lovie and did not care if the plan of Sean succeded or not, and thus he would return to Orleans where he would report to Bill Lovie about the conversation that he and William had. With the departure of Sean Lovie the remaining elements of the True Sons of Lucerne were mainly William loyalists and in this way he would meet again with Hanna but this time she introduced them to House Krinner and House Dorin of whom led by Harrold Krinner, Trailen Dorin and accompanied by prominent heirs in Danzal Krinner, and Trailen Dorin II. they would be shown to be loyalists who were more then ready to assist when the time came to destroy the forces of Sean Lovie.

The Riverlands[]
Meeting the Elves[]

Following the Second Battle of Minus Ithil the Elves of High Forest would come to understand that the alliance between Gondor, Lucerne, and High Forest was something that they should work towards and as they followed the Lucernians into the relief of Tree Hill they would also send a large force to Nortburg to celebrate at the tournament. Alongside sending a force led by Taflarion Stormrage, and his wife Helian Stormrage, and their daughter Tonlia Stormrage, alongside her husband Cadwyr Winterdew the High Forest government back in the capital would also make several large movements for advancing the alliance itself when Malfurion Stormrage would contact the forces of the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, and the Atmer Empire and told the two forces that they needed to send forces to the tournament as the new king of Lucerne was someone who truly was willing to try and change things for the better. The Sindar Elven Kingdom of Quel'Thalas sends representatives in the form of Alleria Windrunner, and Marinda Oakwhisper to the tournament as well with the purpose of arranging a stronger relationship with the Kingdom of Lucerne's new King. The Atmer Empire would send members of the Atmer Elven great house in the form of the House of Finwe to the tournament and these Elves used Magi portals to enter the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas and then travelled into Lucerne alongside the force led by Alleria. These Atmer Elves would be the first of the High Elves to enter the Kingdom of Lucerne in an almost uncountable time and led by Elendil Finwe III., his daughter Alais Finwe, and sons Talais Finwe, and Anar Finwe IV. of whom have come to discuss an alliance with William and Lucerne. The Elves appear very honorable about their intentions and the talks go well, with Hedrik Clegane III. leading the negotiations with the High Elves, and despite eventually leaving it would be so successful that William would make his intentions known to them by inviting the Elves to found a small settlement in Frosthelm. The Elves like the idea and Elendil sends his sons back to Ulthuan to make the arrangements while he will accompany William for the next while.

Sansa Starke

The Starke's had come on mass to the Tournament of Nortburg and during this time it was believed that Sansa Starke, and Joffrey Lannister would get a lot of time together to get to know eachother, and while this was true with Joffrey, and Sansa going on a walk together and having a good time, this would alter dramatically later that night.

The Manderlys[]

As the tournament is only a few days from starting the final invitees arrive in the form of the Manderlys of whoom William meets with several representatives of the Manderlys who control the White Knife and during this conversation he and his father in law Charlie Swan are able to arrange a marriage between Winfred Manderly, and Miley Black. In this arrangement he and Charlie Swan decide that they will send Lucas Scott of whom is deemed by many to be the hero of the Siege of Tree Hill and thus someone they want to remain close too, but also William has become obsessed with Brooke Scott and thinks on her constantly believing that this will give him a chance to see her again.

Arrival of Brooke Scott[]
Our being together was not a mistake William. Our being together has led us to this moment. No matter what way you look at this our child will be amazing. Our love guarantees that.
Brooke Scott

Following the end of the tournament William and the group prepare to return to the capital where they will plan out the reconquest of Berne, but this changes with the arrival of Brooke Scott of whom breaks down crying in front of him as he stands with Leven, and Jasper and William quickly takes her away from the two into a back room where before he is able to say anything she reveals her stomach showing she is nearly four months pregnant from the time they last saw each other. Realizing in that moment she appears more pregnant then Bella he ponders the consequences of this but she doesn't demand anything just wishes him to help her with her grandfathers funeral.
