Beldefort Bedford.
The Bedford Family was one of the fourteen members of the Tulip Family, excelling in both commerce and magic.
In commerce, the Bedford Family owned the largest shipyard in Lundan, supporting the livelihood of millions of dockworkers. Their influence in the secular world ranked among the top three within the Tulip Family.
In the domain of magic, the Bedford Family had a Legendary Mage, Beldefort Bedford, who was one of the senior officials at the Windsor Magical Department Headquarters.
Unyielding royalists and money-grubbing opportunists, known for their low profile and endless scandals, they earned Queen Sophia's trust nonetheless.
Put simply, the Bedford Family in those days had wealth, connections, status, and influence; even the Lando Family had to steer clear of their power.
Once so glorious, now so destitute.
