Clans of the East

Clans of the East

The last Clan Wars on Nilfeheim erupted after generations of squabbling and previous fights and smaller wars between clans. The reason are the Uhim grounds, the only area of Ocean that is not freezing per during Longnight and yields the best fish catches.

The Uhims claiming these grounds founded an alliance of nearby clans and called it the Clans of the East. The clans of the West united under the Trolle banner known as the Clans of the West.

The Clans of the West were victorious and Clan Wars were outlawed by the Circle of the Eldest. The Clans of the West demanded tribute payments, but with the death of the last Uhim the Clans of the East alliance disbanded and no one felt "responsible" to make the payments. Clans of the West are certain that the legendary Black Clans are actually disguised East Clans trying to regain what was lost.
