History
Meldon is an ancient city who's founding is lost to time. Since the city was founded it had been ruled by the Grant family. they were known for their tenacity and arrogant attitude (something that showed in the people of Meldon as well) Although they were fierce fighters they were not particularly good at ruling which began to show when a young upstart king in the south named Rendall Godfrey became to earn popularity even with some northerners. The most northerners hated the south and thought of them as weak and godless they took special notice when Rendall defeated The Black it showed the North that this man was something special since the Grant family had been trying for years to quell The Black but had never made any progress.

After this King Baldwin Grant declared war on Stonehall saying that the west belonged to one family and one family only, the Grants. After years of fighting, Rendall V killed Jordan Grant in a duel during the battle of Meldon. after this the north accepted the Rendal family as the true kings given there respect for strength above all else.
