The town of High hold is considering its allegiances now that it has been rebuilt.
Most have assumed it would be to silverymoon as before, however many are reminded of the odd events that seem to imply the council of the High Lady might have had some link, High Holds destruction years ago.
So far, Obould has surprised the marches with his curious interest in High hold, and has even offered a number of his most trusted orc to defend the town. There must be a reason behind it, but so far nothing has been found. The offer is met with suspicion and almost open hostility.
Lord Ithym of Lorkh is also rumoured to be offering his hand of an alliance to them. It is compelling because many who were poor and could not afford to live even in quarvaar, took shelter in Lorkh. Some even made minor improvements to their wealth while there, though quite a few could not adapt.
These events are troubling enough to get Lord Hornblades attention. Some say its going to be his first test, to see if he can bring about a fresh start, where Queen Alustrial failed.
A great many argue for high hold to be left to its own ways and devices. Any alliance would only be on High holds terms first.
Nobody knows where High holds path now lies. Their own representatives are but provisional roles for the moment, until some form of political force is organised. What kind is anyones guess.
