22. Dyneskal Empire
A despotic empire sprawled across the northern half of Vyashion. Based in the capital, Ancient, Dyneskal is experiencing an unprecedented period of strength and prosperity. Founded in the Eight Century, a few generations passed until the great Empereror Langaster expanded Dyneskal to encompass over half the continent. However, the Seven Dragon Knights of Rostorl managed to kill Langaster and prevent Dyneskal’s triumph over the continent. Since then, Dyneskal and Rostorl have maintained a fragile stalemate. After his ascension, the current Emperor, Balor, proclaimed an end to the class system and insisted that ability, not blood should be the worth of a person. Such revolutionary ideas reverberated violently throughout the nobles of Dyneskal. They attempted to assassinate Balor, but Balor’s wife, Cathreon, interferes and becomes the victim.

24. Elz
An island city-state located to the far southeast. After the destruction of the Magic Kingdom of Ladras, Ayya, the shrine maiden of the Wind God, crossed the ocean and founded the city. Through some kind of magical reincarnation, Ayya passes her appearance and memories to her magically created daughter and has ruled Elz since its founding. It is widely believed that because of Ayya’s clairvoyance, Elz has been able to avoid all crises that might have struck. As such, even though Ayya rarely shows herself, the citizens of Elz hold much respect for her. However, since Elz relies on sea trade, an increase in pirate activity is taking its toll on the city.
