Yes, that's what it said in the book though. These sorts of things did happen in 't'olden days of yore' though in the
royal families.
I (ie the GM) knows why Arsen II is the heir. 'No knowledge' Fenrir has no idea though.
Assuming Fenrir asks his dad though, he says :
'After the Black Knight, Fenrik became the Lord of Thunderstaff. He died when I was just a young lad, the same age as Zoltan.
When he did, his obvious heir was Arsten the Yellow. For some reason though he declined it and Baeron became the Lord.
Looking back I assumed there was some logical reason for it, but well... since Baeron had presumably sold his soul to the
demons, they may have had a hand in making sure Arsten stepped down in favour of Baeron.
When Arsten the Yellow died, this was before you were born, Baeron, not having any children of his own, named Arsten II
as the heir. He would have been the Lord of Thunderstaff if his father hadn't given it up so it is logical.
Shallerim could argue he is the heir though, being the next brother in line, saying that since Arsten gave it up, he also
gave it up for his son. I hope they see sense anyway, arguing about it inside the family will only make us weaker ...
and the jackals are at the door...'
