The three strongest political powers in this hemisphere are
- Kingdom of Kerel: up until a year ago, an average feudal nation with the nobles abusing their power over peasants. The death of the king caused the young prince
to come to power, and somehow he has whipped the dukes into line and ushered in an unprecented period of benevolence for all.
- the Shadowmoon Suzerainty: an equitable association of nations on paper, an absolute dictatorship in reality. Extremely LN. Obey the law and you have nothing to fear.
- the Kishpak Empire: over the last several hundred years, a shadowy figure known as "Khalid the Undying" (assumed by most to be a human arch-mage) has, via an immense
amount of brute force (both physical and magical) united an astonishing collection of humanoids. Squelching their inter- and intra-species wars, he has brought
an unprecented degree of organization to these normally unruly & chaotic races, resulting in an ominous threat to the neighboring countries.
Located geographically between the first two is Silverkeep: a city-state of merchants which strives to be neutral on all issues, intent on being nothing more than
a safe-haven for trade. As this has benefited both Kerel and Shadowmoon, it remains the status quo. Nominally ruled by an all-powerful "Administrator",
it's an open secret that he's merely a figurehead for the guilds who really run Silverkeep.
