Clegane paid his respects to the Lord of House Farman, before beginning his petition. "Lord Farman, I have recently been appointed to the rank of High Commander of the Westerlands Navy. I would like the rights to build a naval base in the northern tip of Fair Isle. Lord Tywin has asked me to create a navy capable of standing up to the navies of our enemies. A vital part of this new navy is a defensible port in the north of Fair Isle from which ships can sally from."

"Fair Isle already has an ample port, Ser Clegane, here at Faircastle," said Lord Farman, a quizzical look on his face, "and within it warships I maintain at my own expense, for piracy from the Iron Isles is a constant worry to the surrounding seas."

"This may be true, my Lord, but we have no desire to interrupt your shipping or the arrangements of your own warships. I would simply like a small bay or cove in the Northern half of the island where a small military port could be constructed, along with a small fortress. The Fleet needs no rich lands or sustainable income, just a place to build a port. We would be willing to buy such a stretch of land for 30'000 Dragons."

[OOC: So understanding correctly you want to build some piers in a cove where ships can sit and wait? Fair Isle is far too small to support two seats so it's not going to be possible to found another keep that gets a levy and incomes.]

[OOC:No income and no levy. Military base at the top of the Island that ships can be based from. Small port for a Squadron as well as a small fortress, but no actual territory.
