“Please, if you jump I don’t think I could live with myself. Just come down, please...”

꧁──────ஓ๑♡๑ஓ──────꧂

Je vois que beaucoup de gens meurent
Parce qu'ils estiment que la vie ne vaut pas la peine d'être vécue
J'en vois d'autres, qui se font paradoxalement tuer pour des idées
Pour des illusions, qui leur donnent une raison de vivre
Ce qu'on appelle une raison de vivre est en même temps une excellente raison de mourir

Avalin Lore

Avalin is the largest country on the continent of Oclad, with a wide variety of resources and incredible diversity. It boasts coastal communities, temperate forests, and plains.

It was originally occupied by various tribes that all decided to group together under common beliefs.

The country is now governed by the Alderich family, said to have the divine authority from the goddess of government, Vitsyn. As of recently, the people have begun to turn on the House of Alderich due to a series of tyrant kings. King Dietrich Alderich (Wilfried’s father), was one of the first political assassinations due to this unrest. Dietrich and his wife, along with palace staff and guards were killed in a fire, set by revolutionaries.

At the time this bot takes place, the people are still ripe for further assassinations and are incredibly unhappy with their monarchy. However, following the subsequent demise of Lord Elmsworth, things have started to get better for the people. The new King and Queen are becoming beloved rulers, the scars of the past slowly being mended. Despite the turmoil, Avalin continues to be a major powerhouse among the countries of Oclad.

Novoland Lore

A small Northern country located on an icy tundra. It is ran by a monarchy much like Avalin, the House of Nikolaeva. However, their monarchy is much more functional and well loved by the people.

It is known for its exports in fish and mineral products.

It is a fairly happy country, living in relative peace. Their Tsar, Alexandrov III (Viktoria’s father), is firm, but fair, frequently showing his face among his people. It rarely makes conflict with other countries.

Ellosis Lore

Another small Northern country much like Novoland. Its tucked within jagged icy peaks, making their cities hard to find unless you’re in it. It’s ran by a dictatorship that uses heavy religious rhetoric to uphold its rule. There current ruler, also called a Dreadlord, is Azazel.

The people of Ellosis have long believed in the power of their god, Phosmus, the god of death. In Ellosis, Phosmus is worshiped as the arbiter of life and death. The people see him as a god who holds the balance between the two, and they offer sacrifices to him in hopes of appeasing him.

Ellosis mostly trades wool products, alongside weaponry forged from the stony materials found on their land. However, they don’t trade much, keeping most resources domestic.

Some extra info on Ellosis

The High Temple of the Frost Weaver

The main church of Ellosis. It rules Ellosis alongside the Dreadlord, having Archdeacons working within the Royal Advisory Court. It is ran by the High Priest Malakor, who was born from a long line of religious leaders. High Priests are chosen like the Pope would be chosen, through a convention of high ranking clergy members. In addition to election, they must serve a time of ‘exile’, where they live alone in the mountains for three years.

Frost Bearers are much like nuns or altar boys. They perform mundane tasks for the church and assist in rites. They do not have the same authority as Archdeacons and other officials, and they are typically younger members of the church. Those who are Frost Bearers typically stay Frost Bearers their entire lives.

Members of the church can choose to take a vow of celibacy and it is highly encouraged to do so. However, there are members within the church who do have wives and family. It is just not as common and those who don’t take a vow of celibacy are required to not engage in any intimacy outside of wedlock anyways. The vow only says that the person will never marry.

Ice Reapers

The military force of Ellosis.

Enlisted can be anyone, but it is largely biased towards those of more noble standing. Yet, all, regardless of social class, have to receive the same rigorous training in order to prove their worth as a soldier.

The Ice Reapers have branches, with an Elite fraction, a Palace fraction, and a General fraction. The Elite fraction consists of the best of the best and are generally only deployed during wartime. The Palace fraction consists of royal guards, whose only role is to make sure the High Temple and the Royal Palace are safe. Finally, the General fraction consists of the average soldier, they keep the peace and serve during wartime.

Sweetie’s Note<3

Niriam is a little darker than my usual content but Gang of Youth gave me inspo to write this. Also, I thought I would provide the translation of the lyrics I put up top... (ft. Google Translate)

“I see many people dying

Because they believe life isn't worth living.

I see others, paradoxically, being killed for ideas

For illusions that give them a reason to live.

What we call a reason to live is also an excellent reason to die.”

Lowkey, he has taken me so long to write simply because I have been sooooo busy lately. He was a little rushed even then, so hopefully he doesn’t suck.

I will not tolerate any mention of torture, , or any crazy weird things you do in your chats. Keep that to yourself, please and thank you.

Anyways, I hope you all have a splendid day or night! <3
