In the third century HE, Queensgrace was the name of a fief of Tortall and it was a county—the head of the Queensgrace noble family held the title Count. In the mid 200s, the Count was Dewin of Queensgrace, and his wife was the Lady Aeldra. Because the count and countess were involved in a treasonous plot headed by Prince Baird that involved kidnapping the young son of the King and Queen of Tortall, they were stripped of their title and executed. The lands were added on to the fiefdom Princehold, and were granted as a boon to Sabine of Macayhill. Queensgrace is also where the conspirators managed to turn Matthias Tunstall onto their side while Rebakah Cooper and Lady Sabine were staying there while on their mission.
