that's a thing I don't get about these great houses. all these families have existed for thousands of years. I get that there's a primary line, but even if that went extinct, there has to be a bazillion others that share the same last name. are relatives not at all in the line of succession?
guess it doesn't matter since as we all know, the power goes to whoever the people want it to go to. but I just don't get how a major house can go extinct unless every last branch of their giant family tree is eliminated.
