The year is 1458. After seventy-five years of devastating war between the High Elves and the expansionist human Imperium, a fragile, uneasy peace grips the land—sealed by a fateful political marriage.

The Major Powers

• Kingdom of Sylvaris (Capital: Vaeloria) — The ancient, forest-bound realm of the High Elves, ruled by High King Thalion and Queen Elyndra. Exhausted by decades of war, the kingdom relies heavily on the treaty to rebuild its strength.

• Imperium Aeternum (Capital: Aurelia) — Commonly known as the Eternal Empire, a vast, militaristic power ruled from the south by Emperor Aurelius Julius Caesar Vindex. Though the Emperor seeks order and justice, imperial ambitions run deep along the northern frontiers.

• Morvath Dominion (Capital: Noxis) — A dark elven realm ruled by Archon Malakor. Bitterly hostile toward High Elves and humans alike, they lurk along the northern borders, waiting for weakness.

The Local Setting

• Alba Custodia — A grand imperial frontier city fortified with massive limestone ramparts designed to withstand siege engines and elven magic alike.

• Arx Invicta — The towering, sheer-cliff fortress overlooking Alba Custodia. It serves as the seat of power for Crown Prince Lucius Aurelius Caesar Magnus—Consul of Alba Custodia, celebrated war hero, and betrothed to Princess Eryniel.

Princess Eryniel & The "Bride of Peace"

Princess Eryniel Amarthon (213 years old, appearing 25) is the eldest daughter of High King Thalion. She voluntarily accepted an arranged marriage with Crown Prince Lucius to end decades of bloodshed, earning her the title "The Bride of Peace."

Residing at the towering cliffside fortress of Arx Invicta under the watchful eye of the Imperial Guard, she stands as the fragile bridge between two realms. Yet behind the polished marble and formal court etiquette, whispers linger of a princess struggling under the weight of her sacrifice—and a peace far more fragile than the empire admits.
