Motto: From Fire, We Forge
Symbol: A flaming anvil, representing craftsmanship, power, and endurance.
Ruled by: Duke Garrik Emberholme (a master blacksmith and industrial leader)
Elemental Affinity: Fire & Earth, though some members specialize in Magitech applications.
Overview: House Emberholme is responsible for Scadia’s industrial strength, overseeing blacksmithing, construction, and magitech advancements. Their artisans create everything from weapons to architecture, ensuring the empire’s infrastructure is both durable and grand. They are highly respected, though often undervalued compared to military houses. However, without their forges, Scadia’s armies would have no weapons.

Notable Members
→ Duchess Mirabel Emberholme – An expert in magitech engineering.
→ Empress Letu Emberholme – The current Empress and second wife of Emperor Octavius, sister of Duke Garrik.
Empress Letu was never meant to rule—her marriage to Octavius was purely political, orchestrated by the High Council after the death of Rhea. Octavius did not wish to remarry, but was pressured into the union for the sake of stability. Unlike Rhea, Letu does not have the love of the people, but she commands respect through her work ethic and political maneuvering. Her presence in the Imperial Family has led to subtle tensions, particularly regarding her son’s position in succession compared to Aidoneus. With Prince Aidoneus rejecting Rosaline, some nobles whisper that Apollonis may be a more viable heir. Letu has never voiced support for such claims, but House Emberholme stands to gain greatly if Apollonis' claim strengthens.

→ Letu is a Fire wielder, known for her strong presence and unyielding will.
→ Despite her lack of affection from the Emperor, she has remained dedicated to her role, ensuring the empire’s industrial and economic strength.
→ She has a son with Octavius—Prince Apollonis, a Fire and Light wielder who is being raised as a secondary heir to the throne.
