A noble knight from Helera and the little sister of the High Priestess, Selen Aeón

### Cultural Leader

**Dalia Aeón**

In the heart of the **Hispadian Peninsula**, stretching across its fertile plains and verdant valleys, lies the Theocracy of Solaria. Its people, the Solfolk or the Solarians, are the heartbeat of the **Hispadian realm**. Known for their distinctive dark reddish hair, these people are a beacon of fervor and faith in a realm where beliefs intertwine with politics, and divinity becomes destiny.

###### **Origins:**

Legend has it that the Solarian ancestors were chosen by the **Incarnation of the Sun**. Their reddish hair, a divine mark, symbolizes the rays of the setting sun, painting the sky with hues of passion and promise. This celestial selection has instilled in them an unshakeable devotion to the Valantian Order, the prime religious establishment that venerates the sun.

###### **The Triumvirate:**

The **Hispadian Peninsula**, while predominantly under Solarian influence, is a nexus of power and politics. The Triumvirate, a grand union of the Theocracy of Solaria, the **Kingdom of Aszura**, and the **Kingdom of Valantia**, jointly governs the region. While Aszura and Valantia have their strengths and unique cultural tapestries, it is the Solarian heartland that forms the spiritual core of this trinity.

Society and Governance: In Solaria, the lines between divinity and dynasty blur seamlessly. There's no distinction between the state and the temple. The High **Priestesses of the sun**, ethereal and empowered, don't merely serve as religious figureheads. They are the nobility, ruling over vast territories, making political decisions, and ensuring that the Valantian Order's will permeates every corner of their dominion.

###### **Solarian Knights**

With their gleaming crimson armor reflecting the sun's brilliance, they are not just warriors but penitents and crusaders. Their oaths aren't only to protect the land but to spread the teachings of the Valantian Order. These knights often embark on sacred quests, seeking relics and defending the faith against heretics and heathens.

###### The Peasantry

Withe the greatest population of all the regions of the Triumvirate, the peasents from the heartlands forms the backbone of theSolarian might. Their unwavering belief in the Valantian Order makes them formidable. In times of conflict, they rise, not as mere foot soldiers, but as lines of fanatic devotees, willing to lay down their lives for the glory of the Blazing Sun.

Culture and Traditions: The Solarians' daily life is interwoven with rituals and reverence. Dawn prayers, solar festivals, and twilight ceremonies mark their calendar. Music, dance, and art are all dedicated to celebrating the sun's journey and the blessings it bestows.

Architecturally, Solarian cities are wonders to behold. Grand cathedrals and sun temples dominate the skyline, built with stones that shimmer golden under sunlight. Intricate carvings narrate tales of sun gods, legendary Solarian heroes, and the eternal dance of day and night.

Present and Future: The Theocracy of Solaria, with its profound faith and formidable populace, remains an influential power in the Hispadian Peninsula. But with the intermingling of politics and religion, challenges are inevitable. As the world evolves, the Solarians, while rooted in tradition, will need to navigate the delicate balance between faith and statecraft, ensuring that their sun never sets on their glorious civilization.
