== Early Life, Family, and Education ==
Sebastián was born to King Benito Ares and Queen-Consort Magdalena Aria de Palda on the 29th of August, 1962. His grandfather and namesake, King Sebastián I, died twelve years before his birth. The second child of the royal couple, Sebastián was only slightly younger than Crown Prince Astolfo. As the second son of the Corric monarch, Sebastián automatically assumed the title of Count of Arauña at birth. He was baptised by the Archbisop of AndoraAntora on the 4th of October, 1962. The future king grew up in tandem with his older brother in the Palacía de la Costa Tranquíla. Both boys recieved care and tutelage by a governess, Señora Luprivento, between the ages of four and ten. They also recieved Paladins of the Royal Body for their protection until they turned fourteen. Sebastián's Paladin, Knight-Captain Félix de Azatrás, was nicknamed "Big Red" by the prince for the man's distinctive beard.
 
The prince was known as a quiet, introspective child who was generally well-behaved. He was very close to his older brother growing up and enjoyed pretending they were knights, though their activites were sometimes too rambuctious. Sebastián had the nickname of the "Book Prince," given to him by the public. His newly born twin siblings, Guillermo and Estefanía, were photographed with him at a family function, with the prince reading to them from a storybook. He remained an encouraging and doting figure to his younger siblings as they grew up, though it was said that he was closer to Guillermo and Astolfo closer to Estefanía.

In 1981, he attended the wedding of his brother the Crown Prince to Gloria Angela de Ferreria, sister of the Duke of Guimaredes. Sebastián notably played the clarinet at the reception to the delight of his family and slight consternation of his father. He was named the godfather of his nephew Miguel upon the boy's birth in 1983. During his studies at the University, Sebastián became aquainted with Emília Pazanna de la Lérida, the daughter of the Count of Castejón. They remained on good terms throughout their attendance and frequently corresponded afterwords.
 
Sebastián achieved his undergraduate degree in 1983, with a Bachelor of Sciences in Historical Anthropology and a minor in Political Science. He continued his work with the Heritage Trust throughout his studies and was instrumental in achieving the largest public interest and funding for the organization since its inception. Sebastián was a particular advocate and scholar on the topic of Réoran-Arranzic fusional culture and headed several outreach programs in cooperation with the heads of the extant Réoran and Arranzic minority groups. With the intention of attending further semesters to achieve a Masters degree, he accepted a temporary position as the royal patron of the Royal Corric Heritage Trust and the Cultural Foundation for AndoranAntoran Peoples. King Benito Ares released a public statement on the 4th of April declaring that Prince Sebastián would be awarded the title of "Steward of the People's Culture" in recognition for his efforts regarding minority represenation and heritage preservation.
