Yeah. The Leicester Alliance is run by a collection of noble houses but we don't have a monarchy like the Kingdom or Empire.
The closest thing to a King or Emperor we have would be my grandfather, Duke Riegan, who oversees the council. That could change easily, though. If I decided to give up my place, it would probably go to Count Gloucester or Duke Goneril next... that's Hilda's brother.
Our history is... complicated. The Alliance is made up of lands that used to belong to the Empire and Kingdom. We're independent now but the titles we have are holdovers from back then.
