Desmond Nathair

Baron Desmond Nathair ruled over Iscia's Cove in the Fallow Crest across from the Ashwake Gulf. While a gentle and forgiving ruler, the turmoil between Galuyn and the presiding Lords of the Fallow Crest nobility saw to it that he was killed.

History
Desmond Nathair rose to the challenge of running the Barony after his parents passing, permitting his sister a spot by his side so she could learn the ways of politics rather than be a simple tool to further family connections as formerly planned. Desmond, while kind and gentle in his ruling had plenty enemies from his parents' time of ruling specifically to the north from other Fallow Crest nobles and the south from Wavewalker remnants that believed Conall, his offspring, and those living behind the walls of Iscia's Rest to be cowards.

Aleyina began to forge the plans to reach out to the clans to the south, reviving the ancient bonds of House Nathair with those of the tribes. While Desmond understood the benefit, he was hesitant to follow through with the plans his sister had drafted up, as he wished to reach out to the nobility of the Fallow Crest territory first.

Seemingly successful in his venture, Desmond managed to bring in a collective of nobles from the Fallow Crest. Most prominently so was Lord Sean Redmond, who began to serve Desmond as a close adviser. Lord Redmond, who himself held a Barony further north, counseled Lord Nathair against permitting the Galuyn tribes a chance, dismissing Aleyinas urgency on bringing the clans into the fold.

At a time of turmoil from the clans to the south once more, whom choose to attack any ships attempting to dock at the ports of Iscia's Rest, Lord Redmond ordered his own men into the city, claiming to Desmond his men would help bring about peace that needed to be kept between Galuyn and Gilnean. Considering Redmond a friend, Desmond saw no issue on the matter but rather saw it as a strengthening bond between House Nathair and the nobility of the Fallow Crest.

Shortly after Desmond was murdered by Lord Redmond and his men executed by the usurper lord, putting Iscia's Rest and her lands back into the hands of the Lords of the Fallow Crest, whom believed Desmond needed to pay for his fathers crimes, against them.
