The Town of Daggerwren and its surrounding County has in recent times fallen from the grace of the havenkeep duchies, following the death of the last Count, the title and its power have never been claimed by a new family, instead the former Steward of the Town have instead gained the title of "Count of Daggerwren". It is unknown how he both gained the trust of the Archduke and have maintained his grip on the county. But many theories points at the Stewards connection to the local crime syndicate and the many smugglers and pirates who operate out of the coves and islands around the Wren bay. This conspiracy have gained increased legitimacy now that Daggerwren has over the years become a hive of scum and villainy, harbouring criminal elements from all over Terram ever since the great crackdown in Bridgeton in the 2790s.
