3 seasons that last 4 months each. It's Waiting Season (Winter), Growing Season, and Harvest Season.
According to the document, it's actually four seasons. Waiting, Working, Growing, Harvest. You can check it out on the first page.
By the way, I'll not be using Sellafour, I'll be making another unique country and house, don't worry, it'll have a Badass Head of the House, but female.

Royal Court:
Grevinne Helga, Lady Vasa, 17 (3 points)
~After the previous Lady Vasa, Elda, died, it was imperative on Haraldr to remarry quickly lest the other Suehan nobles begin to believe he was grieving, a sign of weakness. Three weeks later, it became politically impossible to remain unmarried. At the next debutante ball, where Helga was presented, the Jarl stood up and asked Helga's father for her hand in marriage on the spot as she was the most beautiful girl there, breaking protocol but proving that the Jarl was, at least to all appearances, fine. In actuality, their marriage is cold, as the loss of the mother of all seven of his children has deeply affected the Jarl. She hopes that as the Jarl overcomes his grief, he will warm up to her.
Prins Viljalmur, 34 (4)
~The Jarl's younger twin, he is a follower more than a leader, albeit an extremely competent one. He is his brother's most trusted confidant, and the two of them are the best of friends. He too lost his wife in the fire that took Elda.
Prins Gunter (brother), 26 (4)
~The most ruthless of the sons of Lodbrok, Gunter does not believe in honor. He has no personal ambitions, but serves House Vasa and will remove anyone who threatens the House, even the Jarl. As much as anyone can trust him, Haraldr trusts him to handle the dirty work.
Prins Raudebjorn (brother), 23 (4)
~Raudebjorn is physically the largest, standing at seven feet tall. Far from what his enormous size and lumbering gait would suggest, he is no brute, and is actually the most learned of the sons of Lodbrok. Haraldr frequently entrusts the administration of several fiefs to him.
Prins Valgard (brother), 22 (4)
~The duelist of the family, Valgard cannot resist a tournament or a challenge. His day is filled with rigorous training, and he often emerges from his sparring with his brothers battered and bruised, but still smiling. His motives are unclear; he isn't a braggart, and will even enter tournaments under an assumed name. He is also the most honorable, and for this reason Haraldr must ensure he is out of the room when intrigue or politics are discussed. Obviously, he and Gunter do not get along.
Prins Yngvar (brother), 21 (4)
~All he wants is to be like Valgard, whom he admires. However, while a love of combat he shares with Valgard, his modesty and honor are lost on him. Whenever he wins anything, the whole world, particularly the women, are sure to know.
Prins Johannes (Brother), 19:
~The ascetic, Johannes is reserved and cold. He spends most his time with Raudebjorn reading books, or hunting deep in the woods by himself

House History:
House Vasa under Jarl Hroerek came across the sea from the distant north, fleeing an expanding ice sheet, as part of a mass migration of Suehans, their people. From their island of Orkneyjar, they raided and pillaged all of Lundland, until as a result of fecundism the island became overpopulated and the Great Suehan Army landed on the continent and conquered huge swathes of land, driving south most of the original inhabitants. Finally, an anti-Suehan coalition was formed, forcing Jarl Blatand to accept the religion and suzerainty of the overlord in exchange for being able to keep his land. Over the years, House Vasa and the Suehans became progressively Lundized, to the point that their nobles speak Lundish almost exclusively. While all speak Suehan, only the peasants do not have a grasp of the Lundish language.

[ This be House Behringer's Vassals. A link will be posted on the front page for them. For you old-timers, vassals are now public, to aid in schem- I mean for convenience. I'll finish making it more legible when I return from work. House Cole's vassals are next. ]
[ The crest of House Stouffer; a rooster over a royal blue field, symbolizing their devotion to protecting those under their charge. Their motto is 'Our Brother's Keeper.' ]
Lord Ealdwine Stouffer is the Lord of The Roost, Greenfield, and Cattlecross. He is 56 years of age, average of height and heavy of weight, pale of complexion, bald but for a fringe of gray-black hair, and brown of eye. He was married to a courtier of his some years ago, Lady Flora, but she died of illness, and the lord remarried to Lady Bucgan, age 47, the aunt of the current lord of House Vealcook.
He has three sons [ Wallace, age 39, Duncan, age 36, and Giric, age 34 ], the eldest of which was born to the late Lady Flora, and is his named heir, much to the ire of Duncan. Lord Stouffer has two brothers; Laurence, age 54, and John, age 52. Laurence married to a courtier, Danehilda, and has one son [ Art, age 38 ] and one daughter [ Inga, age 34 ]. John long ago became a mercenary, and his whereabouts are currently unknown, though it is known he has never officially married.
House Stouffer is an old House. It has held its ancestral land of the Roost since long before the unification of Lundland, and its expansion in decades past has been largely peaceful, with its farmers spreading out over what was once common land.
During the Unification, the peaceful House willingly pledged itself as your vassals, for fear of the violence that had been engulfing the land. Ever since, they have been loyal, and peaceful people.
The ruling Lord Ealdwine is a haughty and jolly man, with a taste for food and wine that is visible at a glance of his massive girth. Though he is not a cruel man, he is a man accustomed to luxury, and cares more for his own pleasure than for the prosperity of his fiefs. His two elder sons are much the same, but his youngest, Giric, is a much more kind and gentle lad. Both Duncan and Giric resent Wallace their half-brother for inheriting, despite only being born to a woman of low status.

[ The crest of House Vealcook; a per quarter division of diagonal fields; one blue, one purple. On the blue fields are the heads of golden stags. Their motto is ‘The Overlord’s Most Faithful Servants.’ ]
Lord Dalmund Vealcook is the Lord of Vealwood. He is 30 years of age, of average height and weight, light of complexion, sandy brown of hair, and dark of eye. He is married to Lady Dalia, age 29, the daughter of a landed knight. He has three sons [ Ambrose, age 12, Norman, age 10, Phillip, age 8 ] and two daughters [ Laura, age 5, Sara, age 3 ]. Lord Dalmund has two older brothers [ Samuel, age 34, Thomas, age 32 ], both of whom gave up their inheritance to join the clergy in Bernwick.
House Vealcook was a House that received its start some fifty years ago, when the then-Overlord Henry IV gave a wealthy land under his rule to his castle’s head chef, Ranald, whose speciality was preparing veal, and other fine meats. As the man was lowborn, he had no family name of import, and thus took up the name Vealcook, to honour his humble beginnings.
Lord Ranald passed away recently, shortly after his two eldest heirs made their decision to renounce their inheritance, and join the clergy in Bernwick. While a surprising decision, both men were quite pious, and had been discussing something of the sort for a long time, as both had wives who died early and childless. They also quoted that their younger brother, Dalmund, had far more of a head for administration.
Indeed, Dalmund has been very productive in administering his land, though he regrettably has a diminished talent for cooking compared to his late father. His union with his wife has also been quite fruitful, producing numerous healthy children in succession. Though fair, Lord Dalmund has been known to put his sense of justice, duty, and loyalty to House Trisch over what might be pragmatic or beneficial.
His sons are young, and thus it is too early to say how they are turning out, but his eldest, Ambrose, appears to be a boy enflamed by wroth, who throws frequent tantrums whensoever things go against him. His father has birched him on more occasions than he’s had a hot meal.

[ The crest of House Fisher; a niant, red dolphin with blue fins, over a light blue background, meant to symbolize the House’s connection with the sea. It’s motto is ‘Reapers of the Ocean.’ ]
Lord Gawain is the lord of Fisherbay, Herringshore, Saltbeach, Rockbridge, Foulmoat, Terrorcliff, Lockjaw, and Shipwreck Beach. He is age 63, average of height and thin of weight, pale of complexion, gray of balding hair, and dark of eye. He was married to Lady Arwa and Lady Hilda, both lowborn and deceased. By Lady Arwa he had two sons [ Charles, age 47, Earnest, age 43 ] and three daughters [ Anna, age 45, Frida, age 43, Kym, age 41 ]. By Lady Hilda, he had five daughters [ Stella, age 38, Luna, age 36, Moira, age 33, Agnes, age 31, Una, age 29 ]. Lord Gawain has three brothers [ Lancel, age 60, Osguid, age 55, Oswald, age 53 ], and two sisters [ Aepelswip, age 57, Donnaid, age 51 ]. Each of whom have their own families.
House Fisher is a powerful House, born out of hardy settlers and merciless conquest. They settled the southwestern shores long ago, and were among the many who fought against the Overlord during his unification of Lundland a century ago. Some thirty years ago, when Lord Gawain could still be called young, he attempted to undermine Overlord Balthazar by arranging a marriage that would certainly allow him to inherit all of Falkwreath. The Overlord was not amused, and settled the matter by forcing the Church to immediately annul the marriage, and place House Fisher under vassalage of your House.
Lord Gawain is still very bitter to House Trisch, and chafes under your rule. He believes his wealth and power allows him to be a great Lord in his own right, not a pathetic vassal House. He is a very cruel man; merciless in justice, but pragmatic where his own wealth and power are concerned. He constantly laments the incompetence and scheming of his sons and daughters, who have all seemingly attempted murder toward one another.
Lord Gawain’s brothers once schemed and plotted to take the land, but being so far down in the line of succession, and having no lands of their own, they have given up such aspirations, and are content to mooch off the wealth of the House in peace.
Lord Gawain’s eldest sons take much after their father, although his eldest son, Charles, has been known to be far more arrogant and strong in muscle than his younger brother, Earnest. Both sons have sons of their own, and though most at court have more support for Charles, there is a growing, violent number of men who would prefer Earnest to take the Lordship.

Wow FLooby, yer a butt. I got one guy who's cool with me, and we think alike, except for all the food. But that's okay. Another may betray me at any time if it serves to benefit the Lord and the House of Trisch. And the other is very MEH with me while probably still able to fight alongside me. You really came up with some good personalities. I'm gonna have to check out their relatives to benefit largely from this.

I may just look at the other players Vassals... maybe...

[Roughly translated as, "Righteousness before Survival", the words of House Osgar precede the existence of the Kingdom of Aaldorenfeald itself, having been the words of the Lord of House Osgar generations before the beginning of the wars that saw to Aaldorenfeald's creation. Despite this, the message delivered by the words very much expresses itself in the Aaldoren people—they are obsessed with the righting of wrongs, and put the display of good behaviour in importance over top of selfish clinging to survival. To the Aaldoren, it is better to be a righteous corpse than a living fiend.]

Military
Since the fall of Aaaldorenfeald to the first Overlord, the unique fighting units and styles used by the Aaaldoren have gradually withered away, being replaced by the more typical outfits used by most other lords in Lundland. Grindan Osgar, however, determined to revive much of the Aaldoren traditions of old, has reformed House Ogar's war stockpile to use many of the same warrior outfits used by his ancestors, before the rise of Lundland. The names of the units derive from the old Aaldoren tongue, a twisted precursor of the language spoken throughout modern Lundland. Their composition draws some heritage from the Giant armies, but with a particular emphasis on cavalry and ranged units.

House History: The history of House Osgar and the nation of Aaldorenfeald is an old one, many generations older than Lundland. The House's origin is unique among the lords of Lundland; the Osgars are the direct paternal descendants of a former Giant Chieftain, the Chief of the 'Osgar' Giant clan, from which their House name originates. The clan ruled over a large swath of territory far to the east of modern day Aaldorenfeald, but their homeland was a harsh and destitute place, even compared to the lands owned by other clans. The westward migration of the clan began after an especially harsh winter, when the Osgars found their traditional raid destination to have become just as barren as their homeland. The chieftain at this time, who would become the Osgar's last feral leader, led his people on a long journey westward, abandoning the place of their birth to make a new life for themselves in what would eventually become Aaldorenfeald. The Giants, respecting their Chieftain's decision not to continue their violent traditions on their new neighbours, but still capable fighters, took to aiding in the defence of the predecessors of the Aaldoren people against their former rival clans to the east. The Giants eventually came to use the language of the lands on which they settled, adding some of the vocabulary of their eastern origins to their newly adopted tongue, and in time even intermarrying with the natives of the land. It was the arrival of the Giants as settlers that fast-tracked the cultural departure of the Aaldoren from the other, more similar peoples of the territory that would become Lundland.
Besides their cultural contributions and offers of protection, the Giants would also come to introduce Aaldorenfeald's system of political organization. Being that it was no longer culturally suitable for the position of chieftain to be a champion's title, constantly fought over, the first born son of the Osgar Chieftain that had led his people into Aaldorenfeald assumed power in a coup, supported by the native Aaldoren, upon his father's demise. His ascension to power began a trend throughout the lands of the Aaldoren, whereby the sons of the rulers who had earned their ownership of land by sheer might would assume power and formally alter their land's succession laws to become entirely hereditary. While the House of Osgar was the first to begin this practice, and it was with their military might that they assisted the sons of the lords of the Aaldoren in making hereditary succession a unified practice, it is important to note that the Osgars were not, at this time, the rulers of Aaldorenfeald. House Osgar commanded over only a single stretch of land, Hebban, with most of the settled Giants having dispersed throughout Aaldorenfeald rather than settled exclusively in the lands of their former chieftain. While House Osgar exerted considerable influence over the rest of the new Aaldoren lords, they were not yet technically the land's formal rulers.
The history of Aalodrenfeald as a politically unified nation-state begins with the nation's first King, the man who melted down the numerous petty Aaldoren lordships into one united kingdom. This founder of the Aaldoren nation was the legendary figure Rytael Osgar, the namesake of the keep in which the King of the Aaldoren resides to this day. Rytael was a just ruler and an honourable and peace loving man, but he had a reputation for crassness, and mercilessness in his dealings with his enemies. He was a man obsessed with justice and extremely ferocious in its pursuit, known to punish the wicked in cruel and terrifying ways to instil a rigid sense of dedication to the law in the Aaldoren people. The most famous of Rytael's exploits surrounds the result of his final military excursion during the Wars of Unification, when the Aaldoren lords aligned with House Osgar united together against the lords favouring the continued independence of the petty lordships. Stories tell that when the last of the petty Aaldoren lords that had refused to submit to Rytael was defeated by him in battle, Rytael had the lord, his household, and his army all executed to the last man. Once slain, their bodies were thrown into a massive, heaping pile of dead flesh, and set ablaze. On the heap of their ashes Rytael began construction of a mighty fortress, named after himself, which was meant to become the unified Kingdom of Aaldorenfeald's capital. It is on the steps of this fortress that Rytael announced the formation of the unified Kingdom of Aaldorenfeald, crowning himself as King of the Aaldoren, which each of the petty Aaldoren lords that had fought with him in the Wars of Unification becoming his vassals. The fortress of Rytael became the new seat of House Osgar, rendering their former seat, Hebban, as a mere secondary possession of the throne. Hebban has from then on been traditionally passed down to the successor of the current Aaldoren king, to serve as the Heir's seat until such a time as he assumes the throne and relocates to Rytael.
Having enjoyed many generations of unified statehood, Aaldorenfeald fought fervently against Lundland in the decades of wars that introduced the empire's existence. Lundland was seen as an enemy to the existence of the Aaldoren nation, and as such, House Osgar made themselves vocal and violent opponents of the first Overlord's rise. However, Aaldoren contempt towards other independent non-Aaldoren lords made them a difficult ally to coordinate with, and ultimately left House Osgar isolated. Eventually, towards the last years of the fighting, with an overwhelmingly large army at its doorstep, Aaldorenfeald was forced to yield.
Since the incorporation of Aaldorenfeald into Lundland, House Osgar has for the most part only spoken or acted against the interests of the Overlord when such actions were capable of being made without backlash. The Osgars are far from being reliably underhanded; rather than constant hostility, the Lords of House Trisch have generally come to expect quiet obedience from Aaldorenfeald. The other lords of Lundland are not so eager to label the Houses of the land as loyal, though, and to the common people is it known that the Aaldoren are far from the most loyal vassals of House Trisch. House Osgar's rebelliousness is always kept tempered by their caution, allowing them to deal truly decisive blows when they have the opportunity, and quietly subsist when tensions are high, and their actions are being watched.

Well, it does say that the head of the house is currently disagreeing with your leadership. He wants his own lordship. As King of the Ironstone Isle, I could give him that lordship. He would be the most powerful Lord in all of Lundland, if he only joined me.

It's not that he disagrees with me it's that he disagrees with the Overlord, which, if I can give him the power to over rule the Overlord, he'll stay by my side. I'm not treating him as an underling, I am also giving him the best protection I can give. So if he would want to be under your rule, he'd have to move and get a new fief, I doubt he wants that.
