Lysander's grandfather, Lorn au Arcos, is introduced in Iron Gold as a formidable, aging Gold warrior whose legacy looms large over the Arcos family. Though he appears only in memory and reputation, his influence shapes Lysander's identity and the family's complex relationship with power, pride, and the shifting political landscape of the Solar Republic. Lorn's disdain for both youthful ambition and the arrogance of old age leaves a lasting mark on Lysander's worldview, even as the grandson navigates the consequences of his grandfather's past choices.
Description
