Broken Shore Bounty
Overview
The Broken Shore Bounty is technically located near Feroz#Cazar in the territory of Feroz. Custodianship of the Broken Shore Bounty grants an Imperial title; a seat on the Imperial Bourse; and a seasonal bounty of valuable ilium.
The Resource
The Grendel represent a powerful threat to the Empire and only constant raids by Imperial vessels against the halls and vessels of the Broken Shore serve to prevent them invading the Empire. The seat comes with a well-protected villa in the port-town of Cazar, in Feroz. The corsairs families of the Brass Coast see it as a point of honour to control the Broken Shore Bounty. The ilium is collected and overseen by members of the i Orieni i Riqueza family. The current dhomiro of the i Orien family is named Riguel.
The ilium that the Seat provides is claimed from the fishing nets of the boats that ply their trades along the coast of the Bay of Catazaar; a portion of all such finds are claimed by the Broken Shore Bounty. While some fishermen resent the claim, the majority appreciate that the Freeborn are instrumental in helping to keep opportunistic Grendel raiders out of Imperial Waters - that a portion of any ilium found is a minor loss compared to the complete loss of catch, ship, livelihood, and freedom that an encounter with a Grendel raiding vessel would represent.
The Bourse allocates the Broken Shore Bounty to whichever fleet performs the biggest raid against the Grendel port of Dubhtraig. Small fleets combine their efforts so that they can be counted together to compete for this great prize which is awarded every Spring Equinox. Template:Bourse Seat
