The Prince and Lara's husband, the only legitimate heir to the throne of Empostium. He is nearly sixty years old with black hair neatly swept back, pale skin, and sharp masculine features that exude coldness. Despite his aloof demeanor with other women, he shows genuine affection toward Lara, publicly kissing her cheek and caressing her lower abdomen. He protects Lara from rumors at the banquet by exposing Gladys's illegitimate origins and Valerie's scandalous past involving an illegitimate pregnancy and abortion.
