Lore: Shadow Hunter Guild Rumored

In certain circles, and among certain individuals, there are whispers of an idea to create a Shadow Hunter Guild in an effort to restrict and curtail "Rogue Mages" while hunting down other creatures of Shadow that may threaten Fastheld, such as Wildlings of various kinds, and the unusual "dwarven men" and their strange airships who were thwarted from menacing Fastheld a few months ago, among others.

Such rumours should be taken with a pinch of salt, however, for they most likely step from the same sources as those who previously proposed an Imperial "Shadow Guard" to handle such threats.
