and the Invictus of Toronto always assumed that Prater and the good
Bishop worked for the same person, Henry Lange. This suspicion lasted
throughout the relationship that grew between the two Covenants.
Through the Family Compact, a group comprised of the wealthiest
York residents and ardent Anglicans, the Invictus supported by the
Lancea Sanctum, were able to create a social structure based upon
the rigid class structure of England through the parceling of lands
to individuals sympathetic to the Invictus agenda.
Like the Jetter lineage, the Quentin lineage found their fortunes
favored the New World, as their strength eroded in France, they
shifted focus towards Quebec and the new allies needed in Canada
to buttress their failing power. Both in need of allies, Yvonne
Dorat and Matthew Braun turned to each other building a bridge between
the Invictus of Toronto and Montreal through the partnership of
the Family Compact and the Chateau Clique. Together they reasoned
their respective courts would be able to keep the American Carthian
movement from penetrating into the country. Working in tandem the
Invictus seized control over the entire region.
With power consolidated the Invictus and their new allies erected
the infrastructure that transformed York from the outpost colony
and fort it once was, to the suggestion of the city it would come.
By 1825 both the Toronto General Hospital and the Bank of Upper
Canada were opened. King’s College which would later become
the University of Toronto was opened in 1827. Enrolment allowed
for students of any denomination to attend, a concession made by
the Lancea Sanctum on behalf of Vincent Andersen, who while a staunch
member of the Invictus had seemingly picked up some of the Carthian
beliefs to the south.
