Agares Blight was a moderate king who, upon rising to the [[Highland Kingdom|Highland]] throne after the passing of his father, [[Robert Blight|Robert]], sued for peace during the First Jowston-Highland War. He was never truly able to love [[Jillia Blight|Jillia]], due to the nature of her conception and his son, ~~[[Luca Blight|~~Luca]], held him responsible for the madness and eventual death of his wife, [[Sara Blight|Sara]].

By 460, Agares was seen as a weak and incompetent monarch based on his lack of control over Highland.

Luca Blight then took the throne as King of Highland.
