The Premise:
An ambitious project began in the Rift several months ago: a new settlement sprung up alongside a river, between Ivarstead and Riften. Enough land was purchased for the new settlement, Valton, to be recognized as a new, separate hold, and the man who had purchased the land, Radwulf Spurvhauke, was given the title of Jarl. Valton is still growing, with the castle, Gudslott Keep, being erected first, and then several smaller buildings were built around it, though most of them are currently empty. In an attempt to attract as many citizens as possible to the new hold, Jarl Spurvhauke has set an extremely low price on these homes: a mere 1,000 golden septims, and settlers have been coming in from all over in a hope of a better life or a chance at making some coin, and as a new settlement, there is plenty of opportunity to do so.

This RP takes place one month after the events in Chapter I. Those events aren't very important going into the new chapter, but if you'd like to browse through the old one, here it is:

In short, two main events might bleed into the new chapter:
- The Court Mage, Fiona Barrow-Heart, disappeared suddenly. Leandra, an Imperial mercenary, is on a quest to find her.
- A series of strange, unexplained, and possibly magical events, have happened. The latest of which was a fire that burnt down an abandoned building in Valton.
