Personal history

Hiram was the youngest of nine siblings in the wealthy Sapier family. Though he was the youngest, he was no less neglected by his parents, however their efforts largely went to waste. Hiram definitely wasn't the brightest of the Sapie children, but he was backed by the enormous wealth of his parents. That wealth got him all the way to a position in the Machinators as a "legal consultant." He was never really involved in buiding the city, but his parents pulled some strings to get Hiram officially credited for the entire project. He, and his young family, were given a position as an advisor to the newly-appointed governor, and that title has remained in the family ever since.

Secretly, Akane always hated Hiram, and wished to move away from the dreary Victoriam City. Hiram also grew to dislike Akane as she aged, and is believed to have had many affairs.

History

Sapie and Sixsmith were both involved in creating the Victoriam City, however Hiram was more involved with the relations, business, and legal aspects of the city itself. When the city was completed, Hiram took credit for the project, and although Sixsmith's name was known, he was never given credit for all the work that they did.

Relationship Reasoning

They have a strictly professional relationship, and Sixsmith greatly resents Sapie for falsely taking credit for Victoriam City.
