Ravenscraig was Gore’s principal seaport when the old kings ruled (05.20). Bards sing of a harbor thick with the sails of a hundred nations, and of every merchant residing in a gilded palace. When the Lords Sanguine seized power, however, the Pirate Kings flew south, annihilated Gore’s fleet, and plundered the city. The Pirate Kings considered Turien’s fall to be the end of the ancient pact that spared Ravenscraig from destruction. They reveled in stripping every bit of wealth from the great city, a feat that took an entire month. The Lords Sanguine reeled in horror, and some attempted to restore the monarchy. They formed a fellowship and struck out on a quest for the iron crown (14.27.01). They rode into the Singing Wastes and vanished.
Lady Belal of the Nets rules here.
