House Aster

Overview
After several careless generations of leaders house Aster was left in ruin. The only member of it’s family was it’s young heiress, Elidi. Elidi removed her guardian from his position at the age of six and ignored warnings and guidance from advisors. She worked tirelessly to rebuild her house from the ground up until its wealth and reputation was restored. Eli invested in the education of the elite, building boarding houses and private collages for the Great Houses. She also invested in Brothels and Entertainment Stages across the city, allowing them to continue their efforts to sustain a viable economy for the masses. Eventually she would find herself investing in magical education, finding mages and scholars willing to teach those with magic aptitude. Wherever Eli could invest, she did so, cutting off those that did not render a profitable return.

Eventually the house would come to be known as the Diplomatic House, due to Elidi using her education and stubbornness to become head of the Ministry of Diplomacy.

Businesses
House Aster dabbles in a little bit of everything. Although not a real business, they're well known to run the Ministry of Diplomacy. However, the majority of their wealth comes from Boarding Houses, Brothels, Mage Institutes, and Theaters.
