The Shieldlands now exist as several realms ruled over by the Thanes and safeguarded by their Reeves, with a single chief Thane known as the Jarl, elected to govern the other Thanes and keep peace in the Shieldlands through the Alliance.
•Herot is currently ruled by Thane Rheda, who is also the Jarl of the Shieldlands following her husband, Hrothgar.
•Bregan was ruled by Thane Abrecan, brother of Rheda who died by her hand after his attempt to usurp her as Jarl.
•The Banning are forest people ruled by Thane Lagrathorn.
