> *Pulled from* [[3-heroes-(Bannerlord)]] — “Penton Neretzes was the son of the old emperor, Drosios Neretzes, killed at the Battle of Pendraic. Emperors' sons usually inherited the diadem, but that was custom, not law, and the Senate chose the general Arenicos instead. Most emperors would then have discretely eliminated such a potential challenger, but Arenicos took a calculated risk in the interest of imperial unity, and kept Penton alive. The Neretzes family traditionally were part of the oligarchic faction of the Empire and Penton now backs Lucon in the civil war.”

> *Pulled from* [[3-world_lore_strings-(Bannerlord)]] — “The Neretzes have always upheld the law, upheld order, and made sure that the best people are the ones in charge. So that's what I'm doing now.” — “The quality of blood will always show itself. Look at Garios and his scoundrels. Play to the mob. Who are Rhagaea's people? Nobodies. She's a jumped-up adventuress.” — “Anyway, Lucon. He's from a good family, you can't deny that. He knows our laws and respects our laws, and you know he'll keep up standards.”
