So, I'm planning a campaign that will take place initially in the Shackles, and I'm having some trouble getting current info on the region, specifically on if Kerdak is dead or not. As far as I knew, he was killed at the end of S&S but everything I've read simply states he was voted out and that Tessa is queen now.
Has this been clarified? I feel like it must have been. Is the Master of Gales still kicking? What was the end result of the Chelaxians attempted invasion in terms of politics and such?
On top of that, what would be good sources for further information on the region?
The only mention of Kerdak's fate I can find in 2e is that Legends describes Tessa taking the title of Hurricane Queen "when he fell," which is nonspecific, but does imply his death to me.
LOWG mentions the Master of Gales in the Shackles portion of the High Seas chapter, where he's listed as one of two example Free Captains who are 'less welcoming to outsiders' than some of the others.
There's not much High Seas content in 2e yet; other than the two sources mentioned above, there's some stuff in the Travel Guide (mostly about trade routes, IIRC), and I want to say the Ancestry Guide mentions a few local cultures of various Ancestries, but that might be it. This edition has mostly looked at Kortos and Garund so far.

Thank you, that's about what I could find too. I found references to him being voted out, but it was on the wiki I believe unsourced.
