Mordrellen Mantear

Author: Kyria d'Oreyn

General

Mordrellen Mantear was Queen of Andor before Morgase Trakand (CoT, Ch. 11).

Her counselor, Gitara Moroso, spent more time with Mordrellen's children Tigraine, the Daughter-Heir, and Luc, who would have been First Prince of the Sword, than with the Queen herself (LoC, Ch. 16). Gitara stayed her counselor until Mordrellen's death of grief after her children's disappearance. Leaving a void on the throne with no heir caused the Succession (TWoRJTWoT; LoC, Ch. 16).

She was pressed to keep at least some part of control over the miners and smelters in the Mountains of Mist (TFoH, Ch. 19).

Like every other queen, she allowed the retired servants buy food through the Palace kitchens for less than its original costs (TFoH, Ch. 19).
