Sacred Stone
The tale of the War of the Wings is told far and wide. Last year, the Barony of the Sacred Stone and the Barony of Windmaster’s Hill did enter into conflict with each other, and lo, the Barony of the Sacred Stone did prevail. This year, Their Excellencies of Black Diamond’s precious daughter covets the wings of the Phoenix for herself. Their armies and allies march to claim them for her. Their Excellencies of Sacred Stone and her allies have vowed to protect the Phoenix at all costs.
