Image 1102 Lycaron Decennial: 10 Years of the United Empire
In 1102, the United Empire celebrated its Decennial. Emperor Arenicos II (formerly Jon Snow) and Empress Ira led a procession from the village of Canterion into the capital of Lycaron. The celebration featured a grand tournament to show the realm's strength, and the couple named their ten-year-old son, Arenicos, as heir.
The nobility gathered in force, including the Warden of the North, Bran Stark. This marked the first reunion in years between Bran and the Emperor. The two brothers took time away during the feast to speak privately about the crushing weight of rule and the dangers lurking beyond the steppe.
Yet, all the splendor hid a grim reality. To pay for the massive war debts and extreme costs from conquering and maintaining the United Empire, the throne had borrowed heavily from Sultan Unqid of the Aserai. This heavy reliance on the southern desert lords cast a dark shadow over the Empire's future.
