Rishia's Parents

The parents are technically nobles, but they live in a farmhouse rather than a mansion. They were tasked with governing a town. Though they were poor, they lived peacefully. They disagreed with a number of royal pronouncements, which resulted in their authority being chipped away. They learned of a neighboring town, the Northern Territory, governed by a corrupt noble who obtained his funds through illegal means. Fearing him, they began raising their defenses to protect their region, which drained the remainder of their resources and earned the ire of their fellow men.
