The House of Graylocke is the smallest of the Houses of Telarus in number, but does control the most land. However, most of that land is uninhabitable, being on the windward side of the island. Despite this seeming disadvantage, the House of Graylocke maintains considerable power because they control much of the headwaters for much of the water used by the House of Brabham.
House is based out of Ursinthias.

House Colors/Symbols
The house colors are Grey and RedRelations with the other Houses
The House of Cairn - Graylock still recognizes Cairn as a member of the Houses of Telarus, due to their relationship that brought about the Treaty of the Well. Despite the exile, Graylocke still maintains formal relations with Cairn, but no longer consider them worthy of leading Telarus. Those relations have grown strained over the last twenty years.House of Lorne - Graylocke view Lorne as ursurpers. While they tend to agree that Cairn needed to be replaced, they feel as the secondary architects of the Treaty of the Well, the rule of Telarus should have fallen to them. As such, their relations with Lorne aren't that good.
House of Brabham - Brabham is viewed as an important trading partner. Graylocke supplies water, while Brabham supplies food. The relations can sometimes get adversarial, but of all the houses, they respect Brabham the most.
House of Lotun - Graylocke feels that Lotun have squandered the fertile lands they do have, and that they don't deserve to own them. There is no love lost between Lotun and Graylocke.
House of Aston - relations with Aston are neutral. As their territories don't border each other, they tend to view Aston as necessary for the situation at hand - sometimes as allies, sometimes as foes.
House of McClaren - During the Goat War, Graylocke managed to claim territory that originally belonged to McClaren, including the town of Wildecliff and it's vineyards. McClaren still holds this against Graylocke, so they tend to be wary when dealing with McClaren.
