Faction Relations as of 4E 28[]
Daggerfall and Camlorn - With the marriage between the King of Daggerfall, Camaron Thagor, and the daughter of Camlorn's ruling lord, the two western realms find themselves bound in a tight dynastic union. The resultant Kingdom of Daggerfall and Greater Betony encompasses much of High Rock west of the Wrothgarians, and stands poised to act; and while few of Daggerfall's sprawling aristocracy feel a war with Wayrest is in their best interests, there is a growing sense of something changed throughout the kingdom, and perhaps the West might yet need to face down another King - or Queen - on the Rock.
Wayrest and Evermore - Kingdom of Evermore has sworn allegiance to Elysana of Wayrest and become a Kingdom within the borders of its ally. Even though the monarchs of Evermore hold the title of King and Queen, their power is diluted compared to that of Wayrest. Therefore it is now known as a lesser Kingdom than a full independent Kingdom such as Wayrest or Daggerfall. Wayrest seeks to destroy its nemesis to the west once and for all, which would pave the way to controling the rest of High Rock.
Northpoint and Shornhelm - During a long a brutal war the Kingdom of Northpoint conquered the Kingdom of Shornhelm. The citizens of Shornhelm still hold a slight contempt for the Kingdom of Northpoint making the realm somewhat unstable. Northpoint would rather focus on keeping the peace within it's borders than engaging in the war between Daggerfall and Wayrest.
