PROTECTORATE
Nestled within the embrace of towering mountains, expansive oceans, and ancient forests, the Protectorate stands as a bulwark against the encroaching chaos of the outside world—a beacon of civilization amidst the wilderness.
Forged in the crucible of ancient tragedy, the Protectorate owes its existence to the visionary leadership of Karlos Karn, the revered Preeminence who ascended to godhood in the annals of history. His sacrifice paved the path for the rise of a nation guided by divine providence, shielded from the ravages of time and turmoil.
Within the sanctum of its domain, a rigid hierarchy dictates every aspect of society. Noble houses hold dominion over the populace, answerable solely to the Preeminence and his Eternal Watchers. Descendants of the realm’s revered progenitors, these noble knights bear arms and armor infused with ancient enchantments, revered symbols of prestige and power.
However, beneath the grandeur of the noble class lies a profound distrust of outsiders, especially those not of human lineage. Magic, feared and abhorred for its capacity to wreak havoc, is perceived as a grave menace to the fragile equilibrium of the realm’s society.
To preserve internal tranquility, the Preeminence’s Eternal Watchers diligently patrol the land, guarding against dissent and rebellion. Accountable solely to the divine ruler, they uphold the Protectorate’s status as a stronghold of safety and order, shielding its inhabitants from the lurking threats beyond its borders.
