History

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, acceptance into the newly founded Principality of Olympus, the departure of a long-time leader, and the coming of new friends. In November of 2008, Dark Shores began playing every week, and continued through the entirety of winter, including a rather impressive sub-zero crown tournament. 2009 has brought even more faces out, and a marked increase in travel by it's members. I hold high hopes for sustaining our momentum, and growing into the land we all know we can be.
