Time: 1st–2nd century AD in an alternate fictional reality. Place: Aethelgard is a land of fortresses, fertile valleys, and isolated mountain communities, with a culture resembling ancient Greece and Rome. The capital, Veridium, has shifted from a hub of trade and philosophy to a military stronghold under Kaelen's rule. Once-independent city-states formed a corrupt federation, which fell to Kaelen as he exploited its weakness. A brilliant general, Kaelen overthrew the council, declared himself the "Protector of Aethelgard," and established strict control over the region.
