Life, Relationship change
The promise of marriage between Namen's children and Shellbay officials after seeing various threats on the horizon.
After the founding of Astania and independence of Fjordstrond with a Skaldson at the head, Namen knew that action would have to be taken in order to unite the human kingdoms. Once Fjordstrond realized that Afingar Astani had the family blood of Skaldson and Warren III, an alliance would form between the two. Namen, always a scholar in history, knew the Fjordstrond would soon learn themselves. In order to avoid the seclusion of the Isles from mainland affairs, Namen would marry his son and daughter to Shellbay politicians while also offering a fleet of 70 ships to the Shellbay Saltkrigere. He would even conspire with his children in their young age, instilling stoic and loyal personalities within them (which the Islands Five priests got involved with as well, ever loyal to the Baron of the Isles). The plan would be to have their children attempt to manipulate the Baron of Shellbay when they were of age, and preferably ensure that they would become childhood friends. This would ensure Logratte blood would bind the Isles and Shellbay against the "Westland savages" and "pretenders" as Namen called them.
