Hey Kendare! Hope your 2025 is going smoothly :D. I was wondering, which queen crowned had the shortest Ascension Year? Aside from Queen Andira, Queen Illiann and Queen Caedan, of course.

Three Queens had noted short Ascension Years: Queen Bernadine, "The Wolf Queen", Queen Shannon of the storms (for whom Shannon's Blackway in Rolanth was named) and perhaps least surprisingly: Aethiel. It's in her nature to strike fast and strike hard. With zero thought process :)
It's not actually noted which of these queens' ascension was actually the shortest, and it's not reliable to go off of the dates of their crownings, as that was dependent on the whims of the Black Council. Sometimes they were crowned right away, sometimes they waited until the next high festival. Whatever the political climate called for.
