Kvernes Coast is a part of Arescod and both are parts of Ascalon.
The Sheriff of the County of Kvernes Coast possesses a writ bearing the seal of the Count, confirming his authority to enforce county law. The sheriff's duties include peacekeeping, tax collection, and the mustering of levies.
Unique to Kvernes, the current Count has amended the writ to not only affirm the Sheriff's ability to enforce the law but to also "enact the will of the Count as seen fit."
This is the rulership position for the realm.
