The Sigil of the Storm Horns

With the recovery of the Sigils of Sovereignty, two Arabellan branches of the noble houses of Braerwinter and Delzuld have resurfaced with new Lords at their helm. These Lords, recognized for their loyalty to the Queen, have been granted back some of their former titles and riches. Yet, as the two houses rise anew, a fierce competition ignites between them, as they seek to dominate the Forgotten Keep within the Storm Horns and claim the coveted title of Baron to which they hold equal claim. This bitter rivalry, fueled by ancient animosities, has been reborn. Now the quest for restoration begins, and there may only be one victor.

In order to gain the prestigious title and the section of territory in the Storm Horns, one of the noble house must acquire sufficient recognition and honor for the Lord to acquire the legendary "Sigil of the Storm Horns." This ancient artifact was believed to be lost to time, has been located deep within the Forgotten Keep, thanks to the endeavors of the Arabellan adventurers with the recovery of the Sigils of Sovereignty allowing for its relocation.

Potential approaches...

• Frost Giants, roaming the Storm Horns their clans are an ever present threat
• Ice Kingdom, the curse of the dwarven kingdom a deep concern, but the riches and possibilities should someone solve the riddle of the blue flame
• Dwarves, the Kingdom of Thunderholme is reasonably nervous over the prospect of a new Baron. They could be allies, or an enemy
• Goblins have begun to grow in great numbers after the orc tribes has taken over the situation in Tilverton, if left to their own accord they could become a greater threat in the future
• Gnolls roams the foothills of the Storm Horns, also known as the Gnoll Peaks, whilst weakened the mine there holds great potential
• The Helmlands and its sickening spores has been recently announced a threat against the natural order and the kingdom, what solutions could there be to resolve that matter
• Orc tribes throw themselves upon the walls of Tilverton, Countess Drakesbane's resources ever threatened by the orc tribes and their persistent assaults. Could resources be diverted from the Storm Horns, to assist Tilverton and gain a greater diplomatic footing
• Cormyr may be diplomatically natural, but that is a recent development. They could easily be turned into an enemy, or a valuable ally
• The Zhentarim casts their long shadow over the Stonelands and Anauroch, their spies may very well be among us already
• Sembia is a rich nation of wealthy nobles and merchants, perhaps there is potential for monetary gain, yet to be in debt to a Sembian is most unwise

What each house decide is the most pressing matter for them, depends on the decision of their loyal serfs. Within the coming days, adventurers are welcome to earn the position of Bannerman with potential to rise among the ranks as their house influence expands, as long as they can prove their loyalty!
