Heltius Fræncius Darus (Ledonian: HELTIVZ FRÆNCIVZ DǢRVZ; Old Heldic: ᛞᛈᛁᛈᚱᚾᛁᚪᚱ, romanized Heleraldr; c. 47 – c. 103) was the first Lord of Helterium. Most consider him to be the founder of the House of Darus,[1] which held control over Helterium for the next three centuries. Many historians additionally consider him to be "the first king of what would one day grow to be Heldervin".[2]
Upon his ascension to the throne, Heltius spent his reign fighting invasions from the Sears. He won the Battle of Ficerpenium in 92, before making an agreement with the Searic clan lords. Heltius additionally saw a Saletrization of much of his territory. Heltius began to style himself as Lord of Helterium. This move, along with the Rechenkieste, would expand his territory to include the entire Hortenic Peninsula.
Family
Heleraldr was the first son of Härie (Harældius) and his wife Æðelflæd (Æthelflum) in 47.[3]

Prior to him, we only have Ledonian history. After his kingdom, we have Trihhimic history. Therefore, he was the first king of what would one day grow to be Heldervin, ascending to the throne bearing the name of the Ledonians but the language of the Helds."
