title: The Covenant of Elk's Run
---
 
- [Covenant Mechanics]()

Canon covenant, see *The Contested Isle*.


**Season** Summer 

Canon has it as Autumn, but in spite of having three mature and accomplished magi as members, it is young with few traditions and threatened by Irish patriots. 

# Buildings

Inside the Aegis there are

- three traditional towers
- a small feasting hall (wooden)
- a good sized stone scriptorium
- a small hamlet

Outside the Aegis there are

- pasture and fields
- several hamlets of cattle herders and hunters

The covenant lays claim to
vast areas of mountain, lough and forest,
and all the vis sources within.

# Covenfolk

The locals are of the clan Cenél Áeda
na hEchtge, and that clan are a branch
of the Uí Fiachrach Aidhne who were
the royal house of Connacht in ancient
times. Two great families comprise the
clan — the Uí Sheachnasaigh and the Ua
Cathail — but it is the Uí Sheachnasaigh
who serve as covenfolk here. The Ua
Cathail resent the English magi and the
aid they bestow upon their Uí Sheachnasaigh rivals, and may soon bring a formal
complaint to the Tribunal. The other covenants of Ireland may support this despite
Lugardis’s best efforts, but it is doubtful;
the interference with mundanes is likely
to bring ruin upon their sodales and
therefore an offense against the Code.

The hunters and herders managing the income sources of the covenant are generally trained to fight and defend the covenant.
