Jernø

The diarchal jarlhood of Jernø, or jernøerne, is a viking organisation on Eldham. Known for being very mysterious and having hidden cities that arent on maps. members have been recorded, being many places on eldham where they are often found searching for information. No-one really knows much about them, as every member has sworn an oath to not talk about topics like the location of they're cities. Most of what is known, is known from one of they're jarls: Palnertoke the cold, who is not as secretive as most other members

history
Jernø is known to have been founded by two ethnic groups, the jættes and the Agrabahrians

the cult of Malcho
The Agrabahrians originate from the state Agrabah, This desert country started with its founder Merci the great, killing a magical dragon known as Malcho. The Agrabahrians used its feathers for they're own magics, and its skeleton was buried under the desert. However much later, it was again excavated by Palnertoke (one of the current jarls) back then he was the vizier of Agrabah. He was compeled by Malchos skeleton, and he heard a voice and felt a strange pressence whenever he was near it. The voice promised him great power, if he'd provide malchos skeleton and soul and new vessel, he chose to accept this proposal. After this he stole the skeleton and feathers of Malcho, and abdicated his position as vizier. after this He began searching for other members to join his cult. This was around the time he discovered the nomads. A species claiming to have migrated from the northern continent of Azia, because of "jættes". They we're described as monsters with red eyes, and a tendency to invade from anywhere. He was interested in these "jættes". therefor he recruited a crew of Agrabahrians, and sailed north

creation of jernø
Palnertoke, eventually reached Azia, where he was promptly approached by jættes, informing them, that he'd like to meet they're leader. He was taking captive to meet the leader of the jættes 'jernbeklædt'. They ended up discussing a variety of subjects including war and death. Palnertoke tought jernbeklædt about Malcho's spirits promise of great power, and also tought him about the worlds of Eldham and Rathnir. This deeply intrigued the jætte who sent out investigations on boats. After confirming the tales palnertoke was telling, he was set free. And the two leaders discussed joining into 1 faction, that could plunder and invade Eldham, they chose to name this organisation Jernø

meeting skjoldbrodir
they chose to flow with the curent on ice sheets down into Eldham, here encountered the nation of Skjoldbrodir. They were intrigued by they're traditions and kindness. They realised that this was a powerfull nation and potential ally with similar goals to they're own. Therefor they stayed here for long. They even asked if they could settle they're own nation here. This request was declined though, in exchange they were offered dominion of the city of Hefnaheim, but declined. The culture of Skjoldbrodir would make a permanent impact on the culture of jernøerne, and inspire them into becoming a jarlhood, and also influence the theyre architecture

settling
they would however end up finding a place to settle, its location is very secretive, and new members are told to swear an oath not to inform others of it. Its known for being overshadowed by near constant fog snow and rain. Most likely created by Malchos spirit to hide the island
