Shieldhaven
A City-state that governs itself via a council of 5, at the rivers intersection it was a lively stop for trade before going out to sea, but it's real surge in population came when it was discovered that for some reason rifts would not open in the vicinity of the city. The Shieldhaven council was invited to attend and join the The Merchayne, but a lack of trust existed as the council members rejected the notion that a term of their inclusion would be the sharing of the reason why rifts so rarely appeared within their borders. Feeling that their inclusion was only to extort this information, the proposal was rejected by the Shieldhaven council. The Anarian Empire attempted to march on the city with what forces it had on the western continent in the year 28AS. It is speculated that their goal was to discover the reason that the rifts had stopped opening in the area. Their attempt ended in failure, as the besieged city was relieved by forces from the Kingdom of Turiand, eager to show the Anarian’s that they were willing to fight back against any attempts to return themselves and others back to their control.
The current council:
- Lady of Coins, Therea Cantus
- Lord Protector, Hogarth Gourne
- Grand Emissary, Than’dar Whisperquill
- Chief Arbiter, Caelum Pradt (Resigned, currently vacant until election)
- Grand Arcanist, Yorrick Wembledim
