==Bellicose Castle==

The current Lord of the area, Baron Tyran Bellicose, lives in a mighty fortress overlooking the Old King's Road. He is a iron-fisted Lord in many respects, but fair. He does not tolerate disobedience, dealing harshly with any sort of challenge to his authourity, but he doesn't squeeze the locals mercilessly and deals squarely with all regarding taxes, treaties and the like, so he is generally well respected, if not actively adored, by his subjects.

Recently, however, these subjects have started to adopt a much more aggressive attitude towards the Baron's soldiers and tax-collectors, and in some areas, such as the Withaive hills, they've actually dared to attack them. The Baron grows increasinlgy paranoid that a usurper is working behind the scenes to incite the people against him and remove him from power. Perhaps one of his brothers or maybe his son. His spys are even now keeping tabs on his entire family.

Perhaps he has been too soft on the commoners and needs to visit such destruction on these Winterhaivian rebels so as to leave no doubt about his power and then, maybe, he'll figure out who in his family is responsible for stirring them up and deal with them in turn...
