Lord Solomon Myers is descended from one of the oldest and most prominent Jewish families in Excalbia. One of his ancestors, Nathan Myers, had served in the Virginia Militia during the American War of Independence. Becoming a prominent merchant in Richmond following the war, Myers helped finance trading expeditions to Excalbia in the early 19th century. When Emperor Joshua I engineered a union between the Highland Kingdom, the Lowland villagers and the Virginian colonists, Myers immigrated with his family to Excalbia, where he established a prosperous business in the city of Landing.
Jefferson Myers, the son of Nathan Myers, was one of the main financial backers of Emperor Samuel I’s modernization plans. After serving as an advisor to both Joshua I and Samuel I, Myers was created the Lord of New Raleigh by Samuel I.
By the time of Solomon’s birth, the Myers family was one of the wealthiest and most respected in Landing. The family was known as patrons of the arts and as philanthropists. As a young man, however, Solomon had little interest in business. He pursued studies in Astronomy, Mathematics and Philosophy, eventually earning doctorates in both Education and Philosophy.
