King Lucas I of Lovia, in full Lucas Joseph Noble I, King of Lovia (Noble City, 1917 - Kings Island, 1985) was the fourth ruling monarch of Lovia. He succeeded his mother Queen Lucy.
Reign[]
King Lucas only reigned for four years, after abdicating in 1956 due to the civil unrest caused by the national famines. He spent his later years on Kings Island, away from public attention.
Lucas Noble was married to Queen Elisabeth since 1939. She was admired by her subjects for her grace and class. The couple remained childless; after a number of unfortunate miscarriages. They remained loyal to each other and Lucas decided not to remarry in order to produce an heir, against his mother's wishes. He loved his wife deeply and these feelings were mutual.
King Lucas was succeeded by his brother, Arthur, known as King Arthur III of Lovia, who would reign for another fifty years. King Lucas and the 1956 famine are the subject of a Heritage Studios movie currently in pre-production, The Unfortunate Famine.
Death[]
In later years, Lucas and his wife lived a relatively quiet life outside the public eye. The ex-monarch remained on good ground with his younger brothers and their children, although Lucas did make public appearances at several royal and non-royal occasions, the last being the funeral of a former co-worker. After being deposed Lucas dropped his title and became a civilian, making a living as a professor. The old man rarely gave interviews and when he did, he told the interviewers how much he liked the civilian life and would choose it everyday over being a monarch. "It is a hard burden to bear, the leadership of a nation," he told the press, "and Lord knows the people are terribly ungrateful".
