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. Although not a talented ruler, he held hopes for a more peaceful society and was able to maintain an uneasy peace with the [[City-State of Jowston]]. However, such policies led to fierce opposition from within the military and he reluctantly entrusted the military to his son, [[Luca Blight|Luca]]. | 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, held him responsible for the madness and eventual death of his wife, [[Sara Blight|Sara]]. Following this, a grief-stricken Agares failed to place adequate checks on Luca, ironically generating more contempt from his son for being weak-minded. | He was never truly able to love [[Jillia Blight|Jillia]], due to the nature of her conception and his son, Luca, held him responsible for the madness and eventual death of his wife, [[Sara Blight|Sara]].

During the [[Knight's Oath]] ceremony, Agares drank the [[Wine of Fealty]], containing the blood of the oathbearer as was the tradition. However, [[Jowy Atreides]]' blood was poisoned as part of an assassination plot between himself and Luca. Agares realised he had been betrayed but could do not nothing to prevent his death. | |||
