The "Six Kingdoms" is one of the longest and most stable alliances in Edhren and is informally called "The Edelrend"; it includes six self-ruled territories committed to defending the good folke of the land from the tyranny of the giants and the terror of the dragons (Folkstand, Firdeng, Edelrend, Aelfrinir, Eldwyd and Suthers). In the past, they stood together against the southern armies of Cambala and the assaults of the Ice Lords. While territories ebb and flow, each regent was responsible for the management of their own lands but pledging to aid of neighbors in times of danger.
But times change...
The HighKing (Vallen III), considered the strongest and well supported of them all was exposed, his family's treachery with old enemies destroying those bonds. The individual regents have retreated to their own lands, behind ancient walls, deep in thick forests, fearing war or worse. And the capital city of Glimring has been occupied by a populist lord who vows to restore order to the region by whatever means necessary.
