The current situation in the North is somewhat eerie; every country and city-state is beginning to calculate their own plans... Clearly, they were allies, and just a few years ago, they could maintain consistency in their actions... Back then, even the stronger nations were willing to accept the proposals of the Silvermoon Alliance.
But suddenly everything changed, and the Silvermoon Alliance was caught in a web of deception... No one would entrust their faith to Elaströ anymore; her connection with Kelben was too close.
With Kelben at the forefront, most realm leaders realized one thing: the Chosen of Mystra were not only beneficial to their rule; if an ambitious person emerged, their threat would be too great.
Commoners don't care who is sitting above them as their noble lord... If it's someone more powerful, all the better... Anyway, they are all oppressed, who will care who replaces the king after he's dead? Therefore, the stronger the lord, the more support they will receive.
