 Since the advent of the merchant council, many of Shadow's once-hostile neighbors now hold somewhat friendly trade agreements, if not actual alliances. Stronger ties have been reformed with [[azha|Azha]], and through them to the Tsarven Empire beyond, and also with Torm. It maintains contact as the sole trader with [[verbobone|Verbobone]] and [[seneca|Seneca]] mostly by way of psionic transport systems, given their remote location. Ties have loosened to neutrality with Tonovi and Tharis, who still trade with the city, but share no further alliance. Since the advent of the merchant council, many of Shadow's once-hostile neighbors now hold somewhat friendly trade agreements, if not actual alliances.

 +The city has a long history of change in rulership, with many being lost to assassination or simply disappearing, which is what happened to Corum Stornway in the late 760ies SG. He has been replaced by a merchant council, which has been Shadow's main form of rulership for the last century or so.

- 
-**Maverick D'Thawne** - Chairman. A mysterious human who appeared a few years ago. Well liked by most who meet him. He was appointed by recommendation by one Solomon Thawne, a well-known hero of the realm, who was about to take the position himself. 
- 
-**Bennett Cantor** - A reserved elvish figure who has been on the council for quite some time. Survived a mass assassination attempt to wipe out the previous council. He was one of two survivors. 
  
 **Anthony Byne** - A bookish man with a knack for numbers. He handles all of the book-keeping for the Council. Prefers the company of books to people. **Anthony Byne** - A bookish man with a knack for numbers. He handles all of the book-keeping for the Council. Prefers the company of books to people.

 **Nikos Tullio** - A somewhat enigmatic newcomer to the Council. He speaks and acts like a member of nobility, but no one seems to know his lineage. Considered to be well-spoken and fair but does seem to suffer foolishness or stupidity. **Nikos Tullio** - A somewhat enigmatic newcomer to the Council.
