City Of Dretiros

== Founding of the city (Fallen Era) ==
According to the archives of Dretiros, the Dretirean people had been expelled from their old home due to losing their city to barbaric raiders. They traveled across harsh vast oceans before finally arriving at a massive icy tundra. They continued into the snowy realm weary and freezing, until a miracle happened. Their leader, Keith Ardonias Dretiryn, was leading the people when they stumbled upon a large bandit camp settled upon an ore rich mountain. As soon as they come near the mountain, the bandits notice the large caravan and begin charging straight towards Keith’s people. As the horde of bandits rode down the mountain, one of the caravan’s scouts noticed it just in time to alert Keith allowing him to rally his knights to counter the incoming barbarians. By the time Keith’s knights armed themselves, the bandit calvary horde clashed with their ranks like an avalanche. The battle becomes a bloody free for all and Keith lost half of his troops before they finally managed to put the bandits in a full retreat. Any bandit that remained returned to their camp to escape the battle, but Keith and his knights pursued them, captured their camp and slaughtered the rest. As Keith stood within the bandit camp his troops just took, he stared in awe as he notices how rich in ore the mountain was. There wasn’t a single crevice that wasn’t filled with at least a small vein of Iron or Emerald ore. Seeing the strategic placement of the bandit camp and the possibilities of exploiting the iron, Keith knew that this would serve as his people’s new home. He gathered his people at the camp and announced that from that day on, this camp would be turned into a city called the Kingdom of Dretiros. 
== Intergration into Vladistan ==
As the town grew, they caught the attention of a neighboring country called Vladistan. Vladistan introduced themselves and offered to accept Dretiros into their ranks. Keith declined however as he did not see much reason to join them as they were making good progress on their own. As time passed, other countries began surrounding the small country, restricting its growth. Vladistan came to Keith, giving him the same offers as before but Keith still opposed the idea, offering a non-aggression pact between their countries instead. Vladistan refused to accpet the NAP all the while telling Keith that "They could not keep peace with Dretiros". Vladistan left, leaving Keith and his Houses to discuss what this could have meant from Vladistan. As the Houses discussed the recent events, they knew had a few paths before them. They could leave and inhabit a new land, but they opposed such an idea as they had sacrificed too much to simply leave. Another path for their home was to prepare for a war, but they knew they could not sustain it due to its lack of resources, leaving them with one more option, integration. Knowing that Dretiros could not sustain a war in its current state, Keith decided it would be best to intergrade into Vladistan to preserve their home. Keith would eventually ask the leader of Vladistan if their offer of having Dretiros integrate into Vladistan still stood where they said it still stood and they welcomed him and his town with open arms
== Independance from Vladistan and integration into Beepeck ==
As time progressed, Dretiros's resentment for Vladistan grew. Keith, while still admit in finding a way to become independent, believed at first that it may not be as bad as they had thought, he would be terribly wrong. As Keith worked alongside the Vladistan government he would witness them abuse their power through blackmail of the government party, extreme control of the economy in Vladistan and more. One day, He had reached his breaking point. Tired of the extreme actions Vladistan and evermore confident that socialism wouldn't benefit his people, Keith traveled in secret to the Empire of Beepeck in the continent of Talasi in order to befriend and aid him in his quest of independence. Knowing that Beepeck has had issues with Vladistan in the past in Tiberia, he hoped their commonalities would give him a chance of finding some help. Once he reached the Empire of Beepeck, he requested an audience with the Ruler of Beepeck giving forth the proposal of a defense pact with Dretiros and recognizing its existence. 
Beepeck was skeptical to welcome Keith but as they learned they both have had similar dislike of Vladistan, they realized they had more in common that they thought. After a few days of discussion Keith and the ruler of Beepeck came to an agreement that Dretiros would become a temporary vasal under Beepeck with Beepeck having a final say in its diplomacy. Both sides acknowledged that this action was with the intent to smooth out any political tensions in Tiberia if they did arise once Dretiros declared its independence. ￼
== Fall of the city of Dretiros ==
Not long after the Kingdom of Dretiros left Vladistan, and became fully independent after peacefully seceding from Beepeck, Vladistan would declare war on Dretiros and lay siege to the city. With the Kingdom cut isolated from the world, Keith prepared his people for the battle to come. As they prepared for war though, Keith began to have second thoughts on making a last stand and so he isolated himself in his house in the city and meditated. Days would pass with Keith sitting in silence until, one day, he would rise with a conclusion to his Delima, he would begin the complete evacuation of the city. The day after he came out of meditation, he called together the Houses of Dretiros along with the Shadow and minister councils and announced to them the saddening news and was met with understanding. While they had the willpower and resources to fight, they were fighting on Vladistan's terms, not theirs. As soon as the meeting was over, all of the citizens of Dretiros got to work to gather every valuable item they had and striped the entire city of its valuables and just a day before Vladistan would launch their attack on the city, Keith would surrender the city to them once all of the valuables and citizens were evacuated.
== Finding of refuge (Traveling Era) ==
With the city lost, Keith would lead his people across the Tiberian continent and across the seas searching for a nation to provide temporary refuge. Eventually, they would sail to a city on a mountain side within the continent of Talasi and stumbled upon the city of Kaline where Keith would befriend the inhabitants of the city and be given access to some land to make their camp. Once their camp was set up, Keith and his scouts traveled across the world to find a new land to inhabit. They would eventually find a nice plot of land next to a lake in Kejafros and would move their camp there and name it Wintervale. Days later, they would be contacted by the Leader of Steingard with a polite offer to join them as a vassal which Keith accepted.
== Settlement in Kejafors ==
For some time, the scouts of Dretiros were unsuccessful in their endeavors to find a new home for the people of Dretiros
