Clifford Cafferen

Line 25:

Throughout his decades of rule, Clifford would also spread the connections of House Cafferen throughout the Reach, with three of his four daughters being wed to men who would eventually become Lords, whilst his son Sefton married a daughter of the Lord Middlebury. His granddaughter via Sefton, Norella, even married the heir of the Lord Eddison [[House Manderly|Manderly]], a one by the name of Garland Manderly, who had warded under Clifford for many years as a young man. Thus, many Houses in the Reach could now claim to have Cafferen blood, which earned Clifford and his heirs many friends throughout the kingdom. In an effort to help his eldest son Sefton's frequent battles with extreme stress and crippling paranoia, Clifford would often write Sefton soothing poems filled with kind words and loving remarks, which he would leave by Sefton's bedside. It wasn't much, but these poems did help sooth his heir's mind, even if only for a short period of time.

However, it would seem likely that the death of Clifford's wife, Deana, in 186 A.I. was the beginning of the end for the long-lived Lord. ~~His~~ bouts with malnourishment became more frequent and harder to recover from, and he eventually became infirm and stuck in his own bed permanently. Eventually, he found that he couldn't even lift his hand to write any more poems, and some months later, in 189 A.I. he would pass away, at the age of seventy.
