Queen Andalura was the former Queen of the Kingdom of Grass.
Overview[]
Assassination as a means of attrition is all too common among the sidhe nobility since the Resurgence. The first and greatest assassination since their return was that of the King Dafyll. Some say that it was his murder that paved the way for other high-profile assassinations since that time.
The first regicide to rock Concordia since Dafyll was that of Queen Andalura of the Kingdom of Grass. Queen Andalura was a steady-handed monarch of House Dougal. She was cut down in 1985, the same year as King Sean of Pacifica, while defending her realm against an incursion of particularly malign chimera. She was shot by an Unseelie arrow through her right ear. She is succeeded by her cousin, Queen Mary Elizabeth. Although there are rumors that her assassination was planned by those within her own house, most discount this. House Dougal is not known for backstabbing.
After her assassination, High King David took Andalura's infant daughter, Lenore, as his ward and heir apparent.
