This wiki supports '''The Unforgiving''', set in Heiderberg, on the outskirts of Albany, Province of New York in 1750, featuring the exploits of the Hermium Beacon. Affiliated with the Albany & New York Consilium, it is the duty of the Hermium Beacon to guard the northern frontier and bring the former domains of the Nefandus Haskallah under the Consilium's control. Their position close to the frontier also means they are well-placed to act as a line of communication to the Iroquois Consilium.
