Strong Harts or "Black Harts" to their enemies is a political faction in the Duchy of Urnst.

History

Near the end of 595 CY, Duke Karll Lorinar went missing and his nephew Ellis Lorinar was appointed Regent in his absence by the Honorable Chamber and the White Harts skirt the edges of treason in resisting it.

The Duke's sons, Jolen Lorinar and Broden Lorinar, contested the appointment of their Cousin and two factions have formed within House Lorinar. Their names are connected to their Heraldry: The Strong Harts (or “Black Harts” to their enemies) who support Lord Ellis, and the White Harts who want to see Jolen as Regent. This began at a time of greatly increased tension among the houses with both great opportunities and great risks for all the houses of the duchy.
