Description
On
to Ryhanion, another one of Vastonia's dominant independent Human Kingdoms.
Under the ruling of Alqwin the III "Duke of Hannel", Ryhanion follows a feudal
social structure but "like Hadaurm" the people give homage to deities of opposing
mythos to that of Hannel.
Here
the people believe in the Norse Gods
and pray to no other gods of any divination. Like Hannel, knights and the chivalric
code are held as the highest honors one can receive. The people believe and
trust the words of the king's loyal subjects and will follow their preachings
to the best of their capabilities, providing they remain as trusted heroes of
the realm.
The
capital city of Ryhanion is Hampshere. Here nearly 17,000 people inhabit the
streets and work day to day within the cities many large stone establishment's,
including Vastonia's most illustrious Librium called "the
great Librium of Anrok" named after a local sage who constructed
it, some 600 years ago. Within this building almost any recorded history, legends
or lore can be found and many Vastonian scholars have traveled great distances
to use this Librium's virtually unlimited facilities.
Other
cities of Ryhanion including Westwood, Kalcia and the second largest populace
of Northridge.
Geography
The
furthest, landlocked western region of Vastonia. To the north you could traverse
the mist filled forest of Mirkwood to end up in the small village of Westwood
. To the south lies the legendary Lost Valley, from which none return. While
in the west you will find city of Northridge resting on the Straight of Pall.
To the east resides the city of Kalcia, comforted by the Vall Bay. The center
of the Kingdom hosts the ancient capital city of Hampshere. This kingdom may
indeed be the most beautiful kingdom in all Vastonia, but it does have it's
bad regions, the same as any other part of the realm.
Justice
System
Laws
and punishments however are handled basically the same as Hannel's rulings and
will closely resemble all of Hannel's social integrity's.
Military/Forces
Numbering
around 4,000 strong, this elite group of soldiers vows to protect Ryhanion's
well being and natural existence. Although this force is small in size, their
only enemies are the Barbarians to the south. Ryhanion also has one of the largest
war fleets in all Vastonia. This famed armada surveys the high seas under the
King's will and is commonly referred to as "The
Royal Fleet of Ryhanion".
