The Kingdom of Scotland
Gael Clanhold
Today the High King of the Gael Clanhold has died and a dispute between Ireland and Scotland has arise over the Successor to the High Throne of the Clanhold.
The Two candidates:
King-Royal James II of the House MacAlpine of Scotland
King-Royal Eion III of the House Durrow of Ireland
The dispute has become quite heated as whatever Kingdom recieves the High Throne of the Clanhold becomes the leader and the other enters into Vassalage to the leading nation.
The House MacAlpine claim that Scotland has the right to assume the High Kingship due to our posession of the Stone of Destiny.
The House Durrow claims that the Scots Stone of Destiny is fake and that they deserve the High Kingship as a divine right.
In response to the tension and deadlock between the two nations the King-Royals of both nations visited with the King of the Franks to appeal to him to resolve the issue and oversee the assention of the new High King.
The Frankish King chose the King-Royal of Scotland to assume the leadership of the Clanhold.
