Done with Kovosia. Next up, the Dragonier which I probably should have done first now that I think about it. [hider][h3]Kovosia[/h3] Like Norsinia, much of Kovosia is a wintry landscape that becomes more temperate towards the south as frozen ice shelves and glaciers give way to sprawling taiga forests and steppe lands. Unlike Norsinia however, Kovosia is home to the Black Mountain, an active volcano that dominates the west much like the World Tree does in Avalan. Though it is surrounded by forests and much greenery now, the region around the Black Mountain was once a land of ash and fire and it is for this reason that the people of Kovosia were known as 'ashlanders', a name that has stuck since its founding a thousand years ago by the first Dragonier and dragon slayer, the Paragon Alaric. Just as the land of Kovosia saw the first death of an Elder Dragon, so too did it see the death of the last and with it thousands of years of tyranny and oppression. Because of this, the people of Kovosia do not worship any deities but the hero-god Alaric, the human who gave hope to allkind and proved that the Elder Dragons - long thought to be immortal and invincible - could die after all. Ever since they were wiped out entirely over 200 years ago, an age of peace and freedom followed with all the races of Tirn being able to choose their own paths for the first time in history. The Kovosians however, much like the dwarves of the Deep Kingdoms, quickly fell to infighting and the nation became divided into many petty kingdoms, each vying for dominance over resources and territories. It was only recently that all these kingdoms became united under a single banner by the Warrior King Agememnar, who had returned from serving as a Dragonier in defence of Yolta against the Vaimese invaders, 30 years ago. It was there that he became aware of his power and responsibility as a Paragon, and those who knew him among the Dragonier would agree that he was a changed man ever since. Where once his duty was to protect the age of peace throughout the land of Tirn, Agememnar now leads the armies of Kovosia in terrible conquest, armed with dwarven steel and a single promise to his people: 'the age of dragons is over. Now begins the age of humanity.' And so an empire is born... [centre][img]https://cs6.pikabu.ru/post_img/2017/09/25/7/1506337054111122262.jpg[/img] [i]The Empire of Kovosia.[/i][/centre][/hider]
