Leonora, Queen

Representative of Rhorien on the Suryan Council of New Tellare, later Queen of New Tellare
1601


She traced her lineage in part to one of the noble families of Old Tellare, and styled herself "Countess of Rhorien". A great beauty, there was much speculation about her being married to Surya to preserve the bloodlines. This was borne out when she was married to him on Mayday 1602, becoming Queen of New Tellare.

Her only son Cuitech was born in 1607, and briefly kidnapped the year after, returning as a 16-year-old after a sojurn on a plane where time ran differently.

Her husband's frequent absences meant that she was effectively running the kingdom for long periods of time, and this was by no means a bad thing, as - unlike Surya - her noble birth and upbringing had included the training necessary for diplomacy and rulership.

She remained alive, though in poor health, in 1655, and finally died in 1661.
