Line 4: While Richard Cameron had been First Lord in name since the untimely death of his father [[Simon Cameron|Simon]] in [[2751]], all power was vested in his regent, [[Aleksandr Kerensky]]. Rather than protect him from the machinations of court and allowing him to grow up with a relatively normal childhood, though, Richard was instead isolated, his only regular contacts his teachers and the household staff. Young Richard took solace in the stories his parents had once told him, tales of brave knights and just kings. While his parents might have sought to impart upon him a more grounded worldview in time, he had no such influence in his life. With his parents dead and Kerensky, the man ostensibly responsible for teaching him to rule, occupied with the operations of the [[SLDF]], this offered a perfect opportunity for [[Stefan Amaris]] to gain the boy's trust.
