The Rimeward Coast
The fjord-cut boreal shore beyond Windcut Hold's walls, where the High Moot's claim thins to a name and the Korl Warband's raiders reckon any unwalled holding fair plunder.
Range-curtains fall sheer into black water all along this coast, and every unwalled holding here has already learned the Korl Warband's lesson once: giant-blooded raiders who reckon any open door theirs to take. The High Moot's writ nominally covers the shore; in practice, the Hold's walls are where the writ actually holds.
