Note: His father was Mattias, 2nd king of the Avenwell Islands.
Upon the marriage of each of the king's four sons, Mattias gave them one of the four islands, giving his eldest son, Michael, the largest.
And upon his death, the brothers fought for control, and the kingdom was divided into four separate kingdoms, and the sons named their islands after their wives' maiden names,
Individually, they became
Michael, 1st King of Onscots Island, reigning from 1570-1620;
Oliver, 1st King of Cooke Island, reigning from 1570-1602;
David, 1st King of Knowlles Island, reigning from 1570-1612;
Charles, 1st King of Rundangh Island, reigning from 1570-1619.
However, they did agree to honor their father by keeping "Avenwell Islands" as the location of the four islands.
Each named his castle after his wife's maiden name; their descendants eventually taking their mother's name to distinguish themselves from the other Islands' families. This line is the exception, however, and the eldest son's line took the name Avenwell.
