Hazea, Crown Princess of Fahran (Gheiravic: هظية بنت اسماعيل العيدروس, Transliteration: Haẓīyah bint Ismā’īl al-‘Aydarūs, Born 13 September 1996) is a pretender to the throne of Fahran and the daughter of the late King Ismail III of Fahran, who was deposed and executed in the December Intifada, and his consort Queen Oihana Victoria. She has lived the majority of her life exiled from her homeland, generally seeking asylum in the courts of foreign monarchs, such as Frederick IV of Tyrnica, Amin Rouhani of Qal'eh, and Azamat IV of Kodesh.
Despite the support of the Caliph and widespread acknowledgement of her legitimacy in royalist circles, Hazea has led a largely private life beyond attending charity galas and high-profile horse races and has made no overt efforts to assert her claim to Fahran's defunct throne. Nonetheless, the Qasiriyyah Council, a regency and advisory council formed to oversee Hazea's minority, has maintained a notable diplomatic presence in several countries throughout Asura and Catai. Royalist partisans have likewise been active in the Aramas Civil War and the Newreyan Crisis, stoking fears that Hazea or another Aidarus pretender could yet challenge the republic.
Early Life
Hazea was born at 5:47 on 13 September 1996, amid the turmoil that followed the December Intifada. Her father, Ismail III, was King of Fahran from November 29 1988 until his forced abdication on April 15 1996. Her mother Oihana Victoria Zapata Ursúa, the Queen-Consort, was a model and professional photographer of Brillianian descent who had begun dating the future king during their time at university. She was delivered by Caesarian section in the summer palace at Tel Imradhil where her parents had been placed under house arrest by the newly established republican government. She was blessed by Saleh ibn Abd al-Aziz al-Fawzan, the principal spiritual adviser to the House of Aidarus, at the Hazrat Nafissa Mosque on 20 September 1996 and named Hazea in reverence to the poetic naming conventions of the aristocracy. Her father composed a sharaba, a traditional poem in commemoration of a child's birth and naming, in observance of the occasion, expressing the wish that, although he had been imprisoned and humiliated, his daughter should be "as free as the winds that whisper through the oasis of Zabral", and it was from this verse that she took her name.
At the request of her mother, the government of President Hassan El Gheisari, moved by compassion, instructed the jailers assigned to guard the royal family to behave with more forbearance and lenience towards the queen-consort and the newborn princess, even going so far as to allow Oihana Victoria to select a wet-nurse and enjoy frequent familial visits without the strict supervision that had been implemented prior to Hazea's birth. As a result of this arrangement, the wet-nurse Sagal Warsame Ali was able to smuggle Hazea out of the summer palace in a laundry basket on December 2 1996. With the assistance of the Emir of Khurais, who had assumed command of a detachment of loyal household guards, the royalists managed to carry Hazea from Tel Imradhil to the port of Ras Thulin in the course of a week before sneaking her out of the country to the safety of Kodesh.
