William Veer was a Remonian playwright and a member of the House of Veer. Although his plays often dealt with past events, characters or foreign lands, they had hidden and critical commentary on the politics and politicians of his time, which made him rather unpopular among the Remonian elite. His gloomy tragedies and harsh, sexual comedies did not appeal to the audience who wanted to watch something fluffy and romantic.

  • William Veer was a Remonian playwright and a member of the House of Veer. Although his plays often dealt with past events, characters or foreign lands, they had hidden and critical commentary on the politics and politicians of his time, which made him rather unpopular among the Remonian elite. His gloomy tragedies and harsh, sexual comedies did not appeal to the audience who wanted to watch something fluffy and romantic. Robert Veer eventually resurrected his grandfather William's works to much acclaim by translating them into operas and giving them more positive endings. William's popularity grew from obscurity to stardom, but William would have rolled in his grave if he had known that his precious plays had been altered for mass appeal.
