Summary
The Wardens are a faction headed by Levan Borgar, husband of Ilona de Brasov, Count Farkas' eldest daughter. This faction operates as a military organization where Borgar is the lead, holding the title of Grand Marshall, though it is widely debated just how influential Ilona is in the decisions made by the order.
History
Their name, The Wardens, is short-hand for a name borrowed from near-ancient history. Avardon natives will know the tale of the Wardens of the Willow, an ancient military and religious order that was founded by the man who settled the country's mainland from savages and monsters; an ancestor of the de Brasov family and a heroic, near-messianic, figure to the loyal countrymen. Though they have borrowed the name, there is little connection between the modern-day Wardens and their historical counterparts; making a split in belief where some feel the faction to be the return of an old order and a reason to hope, but others believe it to be zealots disrespecting the memory of old heroes.
