The acting manager for the affairs of the Vesala Estate was one of the most loyal vassals of the duke - the Baron of Viole, a distant cousin of the Vesala.
His loyalty came forth after the Vesala siblings, Maxim and Carolina offered him timely help when his fief was on the verge of collapsing.
It was further strengthened when Duke Maxim even announced to bestow his daughter, Illia Viole, the surname Vesala in order to increase her prospects of becoming a doctor in the capital.
Due to her daughter's undeniable talent in medicine, he was taken by the duke as a scholar, introducing her to the high society as the Duke and Empress's gifted niece, Illya Viole Vesala.
All these things deepened the sense of gratitude that the Baron of Viole felt towards the duke and the empress. He became one of the most radical followers of the two, even actively participating in the setting up of the black market as the middleman.
