Piers Ambrose

Piers is the son of Lord Ambrose. He attends University at the same time as Robert, though they were not friends. Later, he is present at Robert's arrest alongside his father. At University, he passed the Qual exam without honours.

He shares a close relationship with Francis Mountbatten. In the first chapter, Adrian reveals that Piers and Francis visited Luca at The Harlequin together. They are also said to have spent time together at Deed's End, a country estate belonging to Piers' family. At the Centennial celebration, they wear ostentatious suits designed to complement each other.

Piers' father is a landowner in the midlands, known for taking advantage of those struggling to pay taxes by buying their land. It is said he has bought some of the land which once belonged to the family of Hugo Forteys.
