History
of Shadowdale - Jyordhan
the False Lord
|
Lord
Aumry was assassinated by Zhentarim agents, who in turn were captured
and killed by the warrior Jyordhan. Jyordhan, with the Pendant of Ashaba
in hand (the symbol of the lordship in the Dales), proceeded to present
himself as the new lord, and was so acclaimed by the people. It was unknown
to the people that Jyordhan was also an agent of the Zhentarim, and that
the entire proceeding had actually been a ruse.
Jyordhan abandoned the Twisted Tower, instead establishing himself in
Castle Krag east of Shadowdale. His court was soon overrun with agents
of the Black Network. When the people eventually revolted, Zhentil Keep
sent peacekeeping forces to maintain Jyordhan's rule. Sylune, now aware
of the deception but a firm pacifist, did her best to keep the Dale healthy
and intact during Jyordhan's evil rule.
