The Vanguards

The Vanguards is an archaic term referring to some of the most ancient heroes of Shadowsong. In common usage, the term refers broadly to allied guilds in Shadowsong under economic, political and in many says sociocultural ties. They are traditionally antagonistic to the Arbiters. In the First Guild War, the terms became more commonly used to refer to the two main combatting sides, with the Vanguards eventually defeating the Arbiters. Although the term has a looser meaning the more tightly it is tried to be defined, the term is used commonly to typically refer to the political divide between the factions of guilds that inhabit Bluehaven and Dragonshore.
