Josua Massey
Josua Massey, nicknamed Lanzamurria, was the last king of House Massey, ruler of Massey's Hook in the days when the region still had its own crown.
His reign is remembered for how it ended: besieged in his castle of Ballarroca, he held out for a full year before falling to King Qarlton II Durrandon, who thereby ended House Massey's rule over the peninsula.
