Assai History

== - History of Assai and the Emperor - ==
Three millennia ago (Or 2000 AC, AC = After Creation), a century after the great Envar war, the cities and nations that once banded together for as far as the eye could see had long since split apart, lost and without guidance without their couriers, the philosophies they were taught, the wisdom shared with them, all forgotten, and the intrinsic human lust for conflict returned without anything to stifle it.
Yet, all was not lost. A man who's leadership and charisma were unparalleled stepped forth, his name was Reiji Yadorihoshi. Reiji Yadorihoshi is believed to not be merely a man, but the chosen descendant of the Envar themselves, and it is said that Reiji was born from the union of the last breath of the Envar and the human desire for guidance, and that he was the will of the Envar made remanifest.
Reiji, with his immense magical prowess and profound wisdom, united the fragmented human tribes and clans under a single banner. His leadership was marked by an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity. He retaught the humans the now lost arts of agriculture, philosophy, and magic, creating a civilization that was much like what the Envar had once brought them. Soon, he became Emperor of the newly established empire of Assai
With his acquired influence and divine mandate, Emperor Yadorihoshi established a new religious and philosophical movement centered around the Envar and the duty of humans as their self-proclaimed chosen successors. This movement, known as the 'Third Order', preached that humans were not merely creations but the rightful heirs to Envar's legacy. Emperor Yadorihoshi's teachings resonated deeply with the people, inspiring the remaining skeptical few to join his cause.
In the current era, in the year 5002 AC, the empire of Assai resembles a time of cultural and technological transformation. The mountain range was lined with ornate shrines, and below in the alleys were vast farmlands, and the capital city was consistently bustling with activity. The New Emperor, believed to be the direct descendant and spiritual reincarnation of Emperor Yadoriboshi, continues to rule with a divine mandate. The society reveres the emperor as a living god, the eternal protector and guide of the people.
