Stonespur

Stonespur is an island in the north-east of Khorvaire and a part of the Lhazaar Principalities . [1]

Geography

It is the westernmost island of the archipelago; to the north is the island of Farlnen , separated by the Death's Finger Channel , and to the east are the Three Sisters . [1]

Notable Locations

Over the last twenty years, Baron Elar d'Thuranni has been overseeing construction of a House Thuranni enclave on or near Stonespur. It is huge and heavily fortified. [2] Sailors who have passed Stonespur say they have sighted a black citadel near the island, and that it is protected by powerful magic; this seems likely to be the Thuranni enclave. It ties into rumors that Elar is building secret enclaves for activities the Shadow Network would keep concealed from even their closest clients. [3] In fact, Thuranni trains its assassins in the warrens under the island. [4]

History

Prince Kaelisk of the Coldtide Fleet anchored at Stonespur around Therendor 8th, 998 YK . [5]

House Phiarlan recently dispatched teams of infiltrators equipped with tenebrous shrouds in an effort to learn what lies beneath the black citadel. But they were exposed, with Phiarlan and Thuranni agents engaged in vicious fighting in the dark. Despite their failure, House Phiarlan has gained enough intel to want to launch another mission some day, though this is sure to increase hostilities between the two dragonmarked houses . [6]
