The Formation of the Viscourt (4E, 11):
Recognizing the shared interests and benefits of an alliance, Plainsking Beowulf and Eltrin Regalsmith of the Mine Dwarves forged a historic pact known as the Pact of Prosperity. The alliance ensured mutual defense and trade cooperation between the two factions. Beowulf had teh following, the numbers and the military while Eltrin had connections to each of the major Dwarven Clans. A Viscount was selected from prominent members of the Hill, Plain and Mine dwarves. Together, they established trading routes, bolstered economic growth, and fortified their borders against external threats. The alliance not only solidified the bond between the Gaulan Plains and the Dwarven Kingdoms but also fostered cultural exchanges and technological advancements. Soon afterwards the Bramble, Ice and Highland Dwarves all joined the VIscourt to forge a generational alliance. As long as either faction survived, they would remain political and economic allies. This stability weathered war, time and attempts at coercion or betrayal, but the consistency of this alliance has made the Dwarves and the Skytracer's very wealthy.
