## History

### Early Life

Olyrh Reia was born in one of the Reian tribes in the coasts of Reus Gulf. There are little information about his father and mother. His father was only known as the Chieftain of his tribe before Olyrh. He was described as an excellent warrior but lacking with a strategic mind. This is where he was introduced to Ryaila and became friends instantly, he would later become his strategic mind and right hand man. He organized a hunting party known as the Argoia Heretics that would fight the surrounding Mystical Species threatening to harm the tribe. He was in his early twenties when his father died and was immediately hailed as the Chieftain of the tribe.

### Unification of the Reian Tribes

In the first years of his reign, the Reian tribes are under attacked by various Mystical Species from the Land of Two Worlds. This led to some of the tribes to form an alliance to fend off the attackers. The alliance after serving its purpose went on to become a tool to project Olyrh's power. He conquered a neighboring tribe in the North and went on expanding his influence to other Reian tribes. He invited them to dinner parties and ask them to join his coalition. Some of the largest tribes refused to join him and formed an informal coalition to wage war against him. Olyrh's alliance of Reian tribes and the informal coalition clashed at the Battle of Meccaius where Olyrh's magicians managed to outmaneuver the coalition's forces. After Olyrh's victory, he went to the tribes of the coalition and gave them gifts and ask them if they would join his coalition. The next day, they accepted. Yet the looming threat of several Mystical Species across the Land of Two Worlds still exist and he created the Reian alliancejust to drive them away.

He was receiving visions that an Angel is seeking for help and if he did, the Angel would give him power. These visions are the driving force and motivation for forming the alliance between the tribes. He marched into the Land of Two Worlds and fought a year long excruciating war against several remaining Mystical Species. After a year, he arrived in the site (modern day Argoia) where the Angel is imprisoned and a Primordial Demon called Asonzeus fought them in a week long battle with large casualties. They managed to drove off the Primordial Demon and free the Angel which calls itself Stipuli. The Angel gave Olyrh a Divine Weapon, the Excarna, and the divine right to rule the Land of the Two Worlds. They form a covenant for Olyrh and his children to protect the land as long as his blood existed.

The Reian chieftains gathered and crowned the Olyrh as the King of Reia and with the united Reian tribes, he established the Kingdom of Reia. He built his capital in the site where the Angel is formerly imprisoned and called it Argoia after his group's name. Many people immigrated there and stayed there.

### Early Kingdom of Reia

After establishing the city of Argoia, he looked to consolidate territories in the north. He attacked the tribes of Tovfan in the Tovfan Plateau. He led a few campaigns himself but was ultimately unsuccessful as they were protected by the larger Dominion of Dresmedeus. He tried to consolidate territories in the remaining coasts of the Reus Gulf but was hindered by financial constraints.

Due to Olyrh's megalomaniac desire to acquire more land, some of his generals stepped up and rebelled against him. After a year long rebellion, Olyrh managed to quell the rebellion. His right hand man and friend, Ryaila managed to convince him that it was not worth it to expand territories because of time, finances, and the risk of rebellion. For a few years, there was relative peace around the Kingdom and Olyrh enacted bureaucratic institutions and wrote the Decree of the Divine Seat which is supposed proof of the covenant between him and the Angel Stipuli. Even as King of the united Reian tribes, the Chieftains still has considerable power over their territories but are now answerable to the King. He tried to make a more centralized government but his advisors warned him that it might upset the other Chieftains and Olyrh didn't pushed this proposal.

During this peacetime, he met the daughter of one of the Chieftains named Lucia and asked for her hand in marriage. They married sometime in the Year 1620 SA where there was a grand celebration. Shortly after, Lucia bore a child in her womb but died in childbirth. Lucia bore two more child but died in an early age. Finally after 3 failed pregnancies, she bore Fruia in 1630 and would become Olyrh's successor.

### Tovfan Raids

Tribes from the Tovfan Plateau came down and conduct raids in the Kingdom. The amount of raids increase as the years go by. Olyrh decided to return the favor by gathering a massive army and raided a Tovfan fortress in the Sotan Way. He ordered the indiscriminate killings of the soldiers and civilians to provoke a reaction to the Tovfan tribes. It worked considering that the tribal leaders of Tovfan came down with a full blown army. Olyrh's army and the united Tovfan army met in the hills of Dallai. The battle lasted for two days and the united Tovfan army were hacked into pieces by the Reian magicians. The Tovfan army was completely destroyed and a treaty was formed that Tovfan would answer to Olyrh and his sons.
