The Augustus family hadn't always been so prominent.
At a time following the end of the Dark Age and the subsequent fall of the Night Kindred from their position as overlords of Ra'as, the kingdoms of men were left almost devoid of any real power, causing them to rely solely on the Great Families for support.
At that time, the Augustus family was but a group of humble farmers who knew nothing but how to till the earth and serve the soil.
That was until he came.
That great figure changed their lives, turning them into scions of a great entity known now as Zion Empire.
They held unimaginable power, seconded only by the Crown and the Great Families.
But their power came at a cost and that was endless servitude to he who made them.
Of course, this wasn't a big deal for them and instead, was in line with what they wished for… an opportunity to serve him and him alone.
