Did I get it right?
I think your interpretation is correct.
However, one problem with the MMRPG and perhaps also some of the other D20 Blackmoor books is that the authors sometimes seem to give an impression of Blackmoor as a huge empire, when it is really a small Kingdom/collection of Baronies. Perhaps it is not the individual works that do this so much as the total of all the different materials that make the setting feel packed. How many organizations can exist in a small realm? At least if we are talking real organizations and not just groups of a handful of individuals?
My attempt at fixing that is linking the organizations to the greater setting and not just Blackmoor itself. The Topaz Eye is a little more problematic in that sense because of its connection to King Uther.
