| The Hiregaard family is one of the [[Five Families]] that ruled Nova Vaasa by rotating the position of prince among their respective patriarchs according to a schedule called the [[Cycle of Stewards]]. In 729 [[Kethmar Bolshnik]] was serving as prince when he died in office. His son Othmar became prince in his sted, under the tutelege of a regent at his father's request. At the end of the Bolshnik term of office, the regent, [[Duke Tristen Hiregaard]], stepped down but [[Prince Othmar]] refused to do likewise, claiming that the regency had robbed him and his family of their turn. By remaining in office, [[Prince Othmar]] broke the Cycle of Stewards. He remains in office today.
