Ruling Council
Queen Daciana von Cioara

• General Skorgi
  

Known Banner Houses
Traditionally claiming Drokkburg, Izvorul, Molvernia, Tarnsted, and Dornear with some solidity; Tiversomin, Westleeuw, Brighwell and Raedoria have at various times been disputed territory with various neighboring Kingdoms.

Currently, aside from the capital of Drokkburg, only Dornear is both occupied and sworn fealty to the Queen directly.

Political Status with Other Lands
Midrvegr:  Currently in a tightly-knit alliance, the Great Northern Army. 
Emlyn: Situation considered very tense; time will tell if erupts into something more.
Raeyithia: Neutral leaning to friendly.
Andus: Neutral.

Current Pantheon
The current Goddess on the Arcanum Crystal is Yrsa-as-Hel, to whom the Queen - who had previously been somewhat apathetic towards religion - is entirely devoted to.  Given the sudden change in her attitude, it was clear to the people that something had happened, but not even rumors as to what it might have been have circulated yet.

In addition to the Crone Hel, Veles has gained rapid popularity as Her consort, and they are now often worshiped in unison in Kraestret.
