I don't come here to threaten you. I don't come here to make demands. I come here because my King is tired of these monsters running around doing whatever they want. Today you can make a decision to stop them. Stop them here.

Following the Invasion of Westbridge and the collapse of the Malfoy control base north of Westbridge the powerbrokers of southern Thedas would begin to realign themselves with an eye for Lucerne and away from Tevinter. Dowenshire, and Heathfall were already all but members of the Kingdom of Lucerne, while the Kingdom of Noveria, and Gnomer were powerful and had independant ideas but also wanted an alliance to assist in defending themselves agains the encroachment of The Empire, or Tevinter. The city of Lydes, and its dependant Kingdom of Anderfells would also become intertwined after the accidental murder of Anders Feron's oldest son by Lord Voldermorte had the effect of creating an immense enemy in the Anderfells. Dran Arryn would be the one that was finally able to bring everyone together when he was able to have everyone send representatives to Heathfall for what people came to call the Council of Heathfall. The meeting would take place in the large town of Heathfall, and the Lucernians would send the Starke's as well as Saiden Scarlet, while the leaders of all the nations came to Heathfall outside of Lydes of which Tylor Griggs was still recouperating from the injury he had suffered during the Tevinter ambush on the Anderfells capital of Hossberg.

One of the main things discussed during the council was what there strategy was going to be to resisting the might of Tevinter if the conflict did come to a head. Noveria would be struck heavily as well as the Anderfells, and for that reason it was decided that Noveria would be heavily fortified against attack, and at the same time they were going to send a large troop of the Order of the Grey Dragon to rebuild several of the fortresses of northern Anderfells for the coming attacks. Lydes was prepared to finance much of the rebuild of northern Anderfells under the condition that Lucerne name them an Arch Duke within their kingdom and they became the head of the State that would be created north of Westbridge. This was heavily argued amongst the table, but eventually Dran Arryn was willing to accept this for a position of Grand Lord and lordship over his own province, as well as becoming the vassal of House Lovie over House Griggs.
