As it is frequently in the nature of my people to wander, it is hard to say from whence I come. Ages come and go, names and reckonings change, and in the end these things mean little. So, I generally say that Aiden Elfeadur wandered into the current middle ages in the first reign of Laurelen and Ithriliel over the Great Kingdom of the Midrealm, which is to say in October of the fourteenth year of the reckoning of the Society. Over these recent years, I have made my home within the Barony of the Cleftlands.

In or around the year 18, I and two dear friends joined together to form the beginnings of the House Lalaiel. The Household now includes myself, co-founders Arwen ferch Morgan and Tangwistel Telynores (Telenor), Hely d'Isigny, Alistair of Avalon, Catherine d'Estan, Ephrain ben Shlomo, Genevieve de Vent Argent, Madelaine Bouvier, Thomas Poluglottos, Tofi Kerthjalfadsson, Christopher, Katie, Rebecca, and Liudimira.

I have many interests, including: Calligraphy and Illumination, Period Cooking, Renaissance Dance, Enameling and Jewelry making, Heraldry, and may other things that catch my fancy from moment to moment.

As in life at large, I believe that the list of things you "can not do" starts with those things you aren't willing to try. So, I have many interests and undertakings to keep me busy.

A number of accolades have been bestowed on me within these current middle ages.
There are two which I account as the most treasured among them.

First among them is the Order of the Winged Trine. This is the only Baronial Award within the Barony of the Cleftlands. Since it is impossible to geometrically trisect an angle, the Order is represented by a Trine (trisected angle) with wings. It is granted to those who "give flight to the impossible." The Order is given at the whim of the Baron and Baroness for reasons which are frequently obscure. I received mine on the Tenth Day of October in the Twenty Second Year of the Society, ostensibly for long-standing and frequently un-appreciated efforts as a scribe.
I was most fortunate to be recognized a second time within this Order in January of the 36th year of the Society for my work in the Cleftlands Charter Committee.

The other is the Order of the Laurel, which I received (despite various political reasons that have, thankfully, faded into the mists of memory) from the hands of Their Mediterranean Majesties, Corwyn and Shana for my work in the field of manuscript Illumination.
