In the mid 2000's, The Shire of [[Three Rivers]] fell to disarray and eventually dwindled to nothing, due to a combination of in-fighting, location changes, and innumerable other problems. A few of the members convened in the summer of 2007, assembling the necessary paperwork and reforming the land under the banner of Dark Shores. The Shire later struggled with a severe decline in attendance that fall, falling dormant in October until mid-spring, when they resumed playing every other Sunday. Over the next year the Shire saw the return of old members, and acceptance into the newly founded [[Principality of Olympus]]. In late November of 2008, Dark Shores began playing every week, and continued through the entirety of winter with a very minor decline in attendance. 2009 has brought even more faces out, a immense improvement in organization and structure, and an increase in travel by it's members. Though small, it's a damn fun park to play at.
