"It was in this new land however, that Axex once again sought to rekindle the heritage of his house, observing
the fickle nature of humanity, and the need for a strong position from which to assert his council. Reaching out
to his most trusted of allies, he sought aid in rebuilding the glory of the Hawklight House, and together with
his family, adopted and of his blood, the Hawklights rose again, to govern the North West, to protect Altera
from itself."
- An excerpt from the Legends and Histories of House Hawklight, regarding the Second Exodus.
General Information
The Talon Isles [♛]
Politics [♛]
Culture [♛]
Blackstone is [Moderate].
The City of Blackstone is ruled by King Axex Hawklight and is the capital of the Kingdom of
Hierax. Home to the vast majority of the population of the Islands, it is currently under
construction. Supplies are being unloaded from the vast Royal Hieraxian Fleet and quarrying
efforts around the island for suitable building materials have already begun. Great towers are
already being erected, alongside an inn to house those travelling this new world - the future is
bright once more.
Citizenry
Arguably the most populated city in the world, due to the centralisation of the Kingdom of Hierax
compared to the myriad other Kingdoms and sovereign entities in this new world, Blackstone hosts
90% of the Kingdom's population at this time. To be welcomed into the fold is relatively easy - get
on good terms with a member of the house, and so they may invite you to reside in the city with the
permission of a council member.
The myriad roles the citizens of Blackstone fulfil ensure that when the time comes that forges and
workshops are built, they will be being used and occupied. Here is a list of the citizens of the city,
and their roles.

Joining Blackstone is a case of roleplaying with any of us in Hawklight, to a point where it would
make sense for you to take up habitation - at this point, simply contact one of the region owners
(found by /domain info bs). If you feel the need to apply beforehand, this is fine, but it's not
encouraged.
Rules
IC
The City of Blackstone follows the Laws of the Kingdom of Hierax. Only the King is free from the
vagaries of law - all else are judged equally, noble or not.
OOC
1. Three months inactivity without informing us will result in your possessions being seized and
your house being given to someone else.
2. No modifying the exterior of buildings, or building below level 50 and outside your building's
floor plan without permission so the city maintains a theme and there is space for sewers and
such.
3. You may lock chests, furnaces, and anything else excepting doors. This is to allow those
building the town to make sure you are following the rules regarding the town building
style and so we can check OOCly what is going on everywhere, without having to break
through walls.
Trade and Production
The Talon Islands Trading Company, owned by the King of Hierax, performs all official trading,
manages the production of fine goods, gathering of raw materials and taxes all of the above in
accordance with the desires of the King. All craftsmen who reside in Blackstone are either part of
this guild, or illegally producing goods without the permission of the Kingdom. In this way, by
marking products as Kingdom-approved, those purchasing them have assurances of quality and
legality.
