Hamnet was the son of Vikus and Solovet, and the twin brother of Luxa's mother, Judith. As a soldier of Regalia, he had a strained relationship with his mother, the general. Hamnet once crossed his mother in a war council, and she had him imprisoned, without light or human contact, for a month. Vikus was away from Regalia, fighting at the Fount when this occurred.
