Kir Azariah Vidar

Kir in 1688 AN

Kir Azariah Vidar (Kir Azariah Vidar Ayreon-Kalirion ibn al-Majeed al-Osman bin Sathrati of Waffel-Paine, born 24.I.1667 in Raynor's Keep, presently aged 71), is a Shirerithian prince and Natopian nobleman. Since 1688, he is the Prince of Whales.

In 1685, Arkadius IV of Batavia, during the Amokolian Revolution, abdicated the title and power of the King of Amokolia to Kir, and Kir was thus confirmed by the rump Parliament of West Amokolia. After the Elwynnese-appointed Commission for the Integration of Amokolia, having assumed the daily affairs of the government of West Amokolia, publicly shamed the young man, Kir abdicated the Amokolian throne without leaving a successor. He asked the new constituent assembly (to be elected in the coming year) to decide upon the future direction of the country. He stated that he was "no Amokolian," and, addressing the Amokolian nation, had "no right to make decisions on your behalf; no, the decision on the future of your country is yours alone". He then set off for the Two Martyrs where he vowed to devote himself to physical and mental exercise, and to the establishment of order and good government there.

A member of the Shirerithian Imperial Family, he is the oldest sibling of Kaiseress Salome, the heir-presumptive of Shireroth, and member of the Imperial Family of Shireroth. He is the son of Kaiser Ayreon IV and the Imperial Mother (then titled Imperial Concubine) Lady Isidora IV of Octavius-Teleni. His twin is Kian Aiomide Shahnaz. He also has a younger brother, Prince Rubin Leonid Orientalis.

Name

In the decree announcing his birth, Kaiser Ayreon IV wrote: "The elder of the twins, We have named Kir Azariah Vidar, from the Babkhi Kir for he is a stronghold and regal as a throne, Azariah after his maternal progenitor, and Vidar, so that someone of that name shall know maternal and paternal love."
