Vex'ahlia, often recognized and addressed as a "Lady," holds this distinction because she was officially bestowed with the noble title of Baroness. This significant elevation in her social standing was granted by Percy, a close companion and member of her adventuring party.
The Origins of Vex's Noble Title
Vex'ahlia's status as a Lady stems directly from her formal designation as a Baroness. This title was not inherited but was personally conferred upon her, marking a notable shift in her station.
- Bestowal by Percy: Percy took the initiative to grant Vex'ahlia the noble title of Baroness.
- Percy's Reasoning: His primary motivation for doing so was to challenge or spite his own father. By elevating Vex'ahlia beyond his father's perceived stature, Percy sought a form of defiance or a symbolic act of rebellion against his family's patriarchal structure.
- Vax's Viewpoint: While Vex'ahlia's twin brother, Vax, had an understanding of Percy's overall intentions behind granting the title, he did not agree with the specific reasoning that it was meant as an act of defiance towards Percy's father.
This act formally established Vex'ahlia as a noblewoman, thus entitling her to be addressed as a "Lady," reflecting her earned status as a Baroness.
