High Reaches Hold

Gallian was the son of Lord Holder Jamson of High Reaches Hold late in the First Interval and early in the Second Pass. His mother was Lady Thea.

Biography[]

Since Gallian was Acting Steward of High Reaches, and since Jamson's memory was failing, Gallian often took over his father's duties. When the majority of Lord Holders decided that the time had come to impeach Lord Holder Chalkin of Bitra Hold, they discovered that, even though Jamson was opposed, he was considered by all to be not well enough to make an informed decision. Gallian and his mother were able to get Jamson out of the way long enough for Gallian to provide the required unanimous vote for impeachment.

Personality and Traits[]

Gallian was worried that going against his father's wishes would affect his chances of succeeding his father, but Lord Holder Paulin assured him that his actions would count in his favor.
