The death of [[Andesen I of Flatstone|Andesen I's]] father, [[Ejek of Flatstone|Ejek]], sent the young king into a downwards spiral. Early in his childhood, Andesen I would develop issues related to trust, abandonment and anxiety. By the time Andesen I was old enough to rule his mother had passed away as well, causing his anxiety to worsen. If it weren't for the nobles that had been gifted with positions of power by his father, Andesen I likely would've succumbed to the pressure. However, the Stonish nobility began to involve themselves in the affairs of Flatstones royal family, or what was left of it at least. Old friends of Ejek turned into advisors of Andesen I until the king was deemed old enough to rule on his own. In 1302, Andesen I turned 17 and succeeded to the throne, replacing the group of nobles that had collectively assumed leadership of the nation.
Andesen I Von Stone, the third king of [[Flatstone]], inhereted Flatstone during a time of peace and prosperity. His father had built the nation up from ruins after two long wars of unification and a long gray period of internal conflicts prior. Andesen, the young king that he was, had large ambitions for his nation. He wanted to utilize the resources that his father had left him with when he passed away in 1301 and turn Flatstone into an empire in order to match the greatness of the accomplishments of his father. The young Andesen would be the first Stonish king to engage in war with another nation in Stonish history, the war in question being the [[First Stonish Invasion of Hoterallia]]. Andesen's political accomplishments are mixed, with an almost even amount of victories and defeats in his track-record. Many consider his invasion of Hoterallia to be a brutal failure, resulting in the death of multiple Stonish officers and thousands of Stonish soldiers, as well as the destruction of the Stonish navy based in the Sotigabon archipelago. However despite these initial setbacks it can also be argued that Andesen I redeemed himself during his invasion of Kakland, during which he and his officers achieved multiple victories and were successful at colonizing large swathes of Kakish lands in the early fourteenth century.
