In the spring of 1992 (After Panjari), Duke Frederick III of Aquila married Dulciena, Marquessa de Bowcourt, and less than a year later the following announcement was cried across the Baronies:

"It so pleases the Lords of the Middle Duchies to announce the birth of the new Western King.

Born of the houses of Aquila & Bowcourt and named Ulric Schwarzrotgold in honour of the founder of the Western Kingdom, his revered majesty Ulric the Wolf; his majesty was crowned on the 11th day of Blossom, the sacred day of St. Jessup, the Kingmaker.

His Majesty will be represented until the time of his majority by his Regent and father, Duke Frederick of Aquila.

With the resumption of the Western Kingdom, His Majesty's Regent feels that it is only proper that the years should once again be numbered from the kingdom's original foundation.

It pleases his Majesty to declare this in his coronation year, 793".

This announcement marked the restoration of the Western Kingdom, and would lead to the most destructive war fought in the west for nearly 800 years.

The war lasted 3 years and was ended with Lady Catherine, Duke Frederick III sister's marriage to Baron Blitzkrieg of Stormguard; to whom she has never spoken.
