A Brief History of Cyseal

By D.R. Galante

Though Cyseal's borders have shrunk considerably in modern times, ours was once an expansive kingdom of economic and strategic importance in the region of Andavale.

Unembroiled in external politics, Cyseal was free to expand from sea to sea and to the borders of Luculla Forest, where legendary and mysterious magicians are said to reside.

Why, then did Cyseal fall? First: trade. As the old kingdoms grew, Cyseal's ports became less central to trading routes. But most importantly, Cyseal's history of a small and homogenous population meant that its cultural importance faded as more diverse nations grew. Capitals that featured Elvish musicians and Dwarvish mead thrived, while Cyseal's trade stagnated.

Still, Cyseal is a seat of significant cultural importance. Home of the last Source King, the catacombs of Cyseal are famed for their beauty and their supposed preternatural activity.

In recent times, the leaders of Cyseal are seeking to reinvigorate her economy. Fertile farmlands are being utilised at full capacity by the incentivized sale of lands to experienced farmers. Cyseal's future shines bright indeed.
