“Serault is not blessed in her neighbors. They are pompous, venal, dull or mephitic. Except for one, who is all four.” ― The Shame of Serault

The Marquis of Alyons or as some wags refer to him, His Dour Lordship is an Orlesian Noble and ruler of Alyons, a smaller, but better regarded, neighbour of Serault.

Description

He spends much of his time in the gallery, looking at the dusty pictures, or the library, buried in books. They give him no joy.
But then, nothing does.

Involvement

The Marquis of Alyons travels to Serault to attend the feast being held for Divine Justinia V.

After certain events, it is revealed that he is behind some of Serault's more recent troubles. He justifies his actions as part of The Grand Game, emphasizing Serault's lack of social standing. The Marquis of Serault has the option of banishing him from Serault or going against the Grand Game and imprisoning him.
