Nia

Nia was the wife of Kaiser Raynor I (married in the year 96 AN) and thus the foremother of all imperial bloodlines. Mother of Mira Raynor Me'Jiliad, Kaiser Brrapa I, Mortis Raynor Me'Jiliad.

The Ages of Shireroth record her as follows:

This was Nia. Sadly, history tells us little of her as a person; we do not know her background, how old she was, when she died. In those ancient days, women were not regarded as highly as in modern times, and few chroniclers of the time seem to have paid much regard to her. What is known is that the marriage was arranged and involved some transfer of property, so she was at the very least a woman of means; it has been suggested that she was in fact a Mercaja, a scion of the ducal house that had ruled Goldshire before Raynor’s ascension. Such an explanation makes sense; although Goldshire had become Raynor's by conquest, marrying a legal heiress would also have given him a dynastic claim.
