Tethimada

The Tethimada was a noble ducal house in Thu-Athamar, and a formerly powerful house in the Ethuveraz.

Details
A previous Duke Tethimel "was a great favorite of Edrevechelar the Sixteenth”, and later emperors favored his rivals, "the Rohethada and the Ormevada in particular. The Tethimada. . . never resigned themselves to that loss of power." They owned the manor Eshoravee.

The last Duke Tethimel was “one of the wealthiest landowners in southern Thu-Athamar.” The Tethimada lead the faction of eastern lords most opposed to expansion of industry in the west, and used that power to leverage for more power in the Untheileneise Court, serving as a thorn in Varenechibel IV's side.

The main branch and perhaps the whole house itself was extirpated after Eshevis Tethimar's murder of Varenechibel IV and most of his sons, and the attempted assassination of Maia Drazhar. Its holdings were divided among Eshevis' sisters, to give them dowries, and then the House name was heard no more.

Tethimel had three named children: Eshevis, Uleviän Clunetharan, and Paru Tethimin, as well as a wife (born to the Ubezhada), a second son, and two other daughters, all of whom were unnamed. His wife and second son died prior to the events of The Goblin Emperor.

Pazhis Nethenel, Mer Reshema, Count Solichel, and Odris Ubezhar are all related to the Tethimada on their mother's side or through marriage.
