Profile

History
Volkhard was granted the title of lord after his sister, Anselma, became Emperor Ionius IX's consort. During the Insurrection of the Seven in Imperial Year 1171, in which Volkhard played a key role supporting Duke Aegir, Volkhard took Anselma and his niece, Edelgard, to the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus in apparent exile. Anselma eventually married King Lambert under the name Patricia, while Volkhard and Edelgard returned to the Empire in 1174.

After fleeing to the Kingdom, Arundel kept Edelgard a secret from Lambert in order to protect his niece. His sister being married to Lambert being implied by Dimitri to have been a secret kept from him to protect her from the empire as well.

At some point during his stay in the Kingdom, Cornelia, who oversaw Arundels meeting with Lambert, is implied to have killed him, replacing him with Thales.
