Matthais

The bastard son of a king, he works as a servant in the castle. The only ones who know of his origin is his mother, who died in child birth, His father, and himself, only knowing because of a letter his mother left behind for him, which he was supposed to read on the day of his 18th birthday. However, he found it when he was 12 years old. He was cared for by a friend of his mothers, another servant at the castle. He's a hard working boy, who despite knowing who his father is keeps it a secret from everyone, because it's what his mother wanted. Despite knowing the King never loved her, she loved him, so she didn't want to tarnish his name by letting it be known that he had a bastard with a servant.
