Calibern

The Calibern is a mighty sword crafted by the Silven family for the Baathúr family. They attempted to replicate the lost Amagad Greatsword as much as possible. They used Esnard Silven's old manuscripts, in which Esnard records his process of upgrading the Amagad Greatsword. Calibern became nearly exactly alike to the Amagad Greatsword, however, without an Amagad, it was impossible to recast the dark spells and sorceries that enhanced the old sword.

The sword was surprisingly granted to the shrouded Galthur Szerclaes instead of Jiri's children. This was possibly because Galthur might be adopted by Jiri, but also because Galthur was considered more powerful than any of Jiri's children apart from Diarmud, but Diarmud was more acustomed to spears.

In **Edelmaa**, the Religion of Jimgoism grew larger and larger after the end of the **Borian War**. **Jiri**, the King of Workhold, secluded himself inside his hidden palace of **Cainwall** and this probably created some mysticism around him which served as an catalyst for the worshiping. The believers not only see Jiri as a deity because of his "Holy Reign" and "Sacred Conquest of the Heathen Land" but also obviously because of him being the son of Jimer, the center point of original worship.

The food supply was low at first, but after all of Edelmaa was captured the Borian Army began to demobilize some of its troops leaving a lot of food reserves for the civilians. The Borians managed to handle the occupation well, but the peoples of Edelmaa, though content knew that after Jiri would return they would come back on Jiri's side. This happened in 294 and the Borian state began to crumble. In half a year Jiri managed to take back half of the country back including the important food province Charlington.

In 293, the Borian War began with the attack on the Southern Coast. Muede was one of the first cities to be besieged by the Borian Army and the city fell within days. The Borian Army was largely met with cheers and flowers, but the Dante-family was disgusted by even the thought of being ruled by the Kingdom of Olav and decided to lock themselves inside their family estate. This lead to a brief siege which resulted in the gruesome deaths of the Dante-family besides Olanius. Olanius, though disliked his family, felt horrified and grew to hate the Borians instead as if he transfered his wrath.

Olanius was delighted when in early 294, King Jiri landed in Graille. Olanius rushed to meet the Royal Army and instantly joined them. He served in the Charlington Brigade, the most prestigious unit in the Army and witnessed the horror of the Explosion of the Royal Keep. However, much like the other soldiers, this event served only to fuel the choler of the Royalists and with burning vigor Olanius fought fiercly in the Battle of High Castle, his baptism by steel. Olanius slayed a Knight from Hefaia, which earned him much respect in the Royal Army. Much to Olanius' dismay, he was not allowed to join the further campaigns and was left to garrison the High Castle.

During the Borian War he tried to usurp the rightful King of Boria, Konrad Perickard in the Officers' Battle until finally being slain at the Battle of Silverion Palace.

## Hopfisch Rebellion

Gotthard was not punished heavily for his participation in the Hopfisch Rebellion, mainly due to his small part and also because he was "more an asset to us by losing", as stated by Hamina Beyard.

## Borian War

Gotthard, maybe rebellious by nature or just carrying ressentiment for the Kingdom, joined the Borians during the Borian War. Gotthard was noted for his prior military experience and elevated into General, mainly due to lack of proper generals in the Borian Army.

In the Battle of Eion Valley, Gotthard was given the command of the right flank of the Borian Army, as other commanders were needed elsewhere. Gotthard was also reinforced with Paul Royar and his regiment, but even then Gotthard's wing was defeated by Mennos van Dire, who had fought against Gotthard's army during the Hopfisch rebellion in the Battle of Bileon as a mere Captain. In the midst of the battle, Gotthard was strengthened by KOMS Knights, but still Gotthard was beaten by Mennos.

Gotthard withdrew south taking as many men as he could to form a final defence. After a few days news of the death of King Akhon Perickard came about and that Konrad Perickard was to become the *de facto* ruler of Boria. Gotthard, knowing that Konrad would sue for unfavorable peace took his chance at greatness and seized Silverion and tried to usurp Konrad in the Officers' Battle.

Gotthard tried to become the sole military ruler of Boria and to defeat King Jiri finally once and for all. But Gotthard didn't even get a second chance to fight Jiri, as a Borian commander, Grisweld Mittelhoss came to arrest Gotthard in Silverion. Gotthard resisted and the Battle of Silverion Palace was fought, during which Gotthard fled the palace and stumbled upon the army led by Mennos van Dire. Upset, Gotthard charged Mennos's men only to be slaughtered by them.

The Duchies rule over the largest fiefs; Midlands, Graille, Baathúr island and Silvairre. Only the title of Grand Duke of Hefaia, ruler of Ili-Hefien, is not held by a member of the royal family.

Duke (Herttua)

## Marches

Marches are ruled by Margraves. All Marches of Edelmaa are located in hostile or border territories, which forces the Margraves (or Marquess) to pay a lot of money to upkeep the defences and soldiers in their March. This gives Margraves influence to lands outside their March in order upkeep their military expenses and defences, giving Margraves much political influence in the Kingdom.

Margrave (Rajakreivi)

## Counties

Counties, though technically same *level* as Marches, are not seen as impressive as Marches which are tasked with the difficult mission to uphold the borders of the realm. Counties are ruled by counts which hold land in safe but rich areas of the kingdom.

## Viscounties

Viscounties work similarly to Counties, though they are smaller.

Viscount (Varakreivi)

## Baronies

Baronies are very small plots of land, often encompassing only a small town or overall a land of less than 500 people. Barons were established with feoffment, when the Kings of Edelmaa began to enfeoffing their favorite subjects as barons. Barons are expected to serve the King in many administrative or military duties, depending on the baron.
King Jiri

King Jiri is one of the Bismarck-class ships of the Royal Navy. The King Jiri, is the flagship of the Parabellum Fleet and is commandeered by the Fleet Admiral Dann Strickt. The King Jiri is the best equipped Bismarck-class ship out of them all, probably because the vessel was named after the current King, King Jiri Baathúr.
Orthac Lovindel

Orthac Lovindel was a legendary soldier serving in the Steel Order. He joined the order at the age of 6 when he was orphaned. Orthac became known for being brave and capable warrior.

* Soliar Varjangaria
* Arash of Visby

Strength| 320 overall* 200 Soldiers of Soliar
* 50 Maakor Knights
* 70 Olav Castle guard
* 45 guards of Silverion

Casualties| 37 men* 6 dead

Officers' Battle is the name given to the final month of the Borian War, when the Officers of the Borian Army refused to surrender and kept the war going. The Borians were assured of their final victory, thus when the Battle of Eion Valley turned out to be a decisive defeat for the Borians, many officers and soldiers refused to accept it as truth. This lead to many officers even some high ranking ones like Gotthard Lichtenawer to openly mutiny against the very state they were fighting for. They tried to stop the coronation of Konrad Perickard, as Konrad was known to be dovist and against the war. Many hawkist officers secluded Konrad from all information of the defeat at Eion Valley and elected Gotthard as their Regent. The war ended, when Grisweld Mittelhoss revealed the news to Konrad and Konrad began immediately to draft an armistice. Konrad then sent Grisweld to subdue the unruly Gotthard, which ended in the Battle of Silverion Palace when Grisweld had to crush the mutiniers. This is considered to be the last battle of the war.
Mathias

Mathias was a KOMS captain that served the Kingdom of Hefaia during the Edelmaa Great War. Mathias however, was very un-motivated by 171 when he encountered Octavio Perickard during the Battle of Meta-Gudur. Octavio subsequently slayed Mathias, which was seen as a very odd result, considering the legendary status of the KOMS knights.
Rock of Paul

Rock of Paul was built in the Sappatoro dockyard in the Westlands and then purchased by the Kingdom of Olav. It hosts +100 cannons, at least 20 cannons more than the Bismarck. It is commandeered by Motz Botlas.
Battle of Norfon

The **Battle of Norfon** was the first battle of the Worvian Occupation and the most decisive one. The Worvian forces under Miro Varjangaria were completely unprepared for battle whilst the forces of Eltil Ung and Jiri Baathúr were well trained and eager to fight. Miro's entire army was nearly destroyed paving way for Eltil to easily capture the Sacra Adelia.
Galthur Szerclaes

Galthur Szerclaes is the Lord-Legionary of the Augustus Guard and the servitor of the Cainwall Castle. Galthur is the son of Gallu, but was taken in by Jiri Baathúr after Gallu's death in the Duel at Einez. Galthur was indoctrinated into following Jiri from early age and thus became a very loyal subject of Jiri.
Nils Niskain

Nils Niskain was the Grandmaster of the Steel Order during the Edelmaa Great War. He was the black sheep of the Royal Niskain family, for he was indoctrinated by the banned Faith of the Forgotten Sword. During the Edelmaa Great War Nils decided to join his family's adversary, Jiri Baathúr. Nils died during the Great Battle of Ravaged manor field and was succeeded by his son Heuteclere Nilsson.
Duel at Einez

Battle of Einez was an famous fight between Gallu Strongbone and Jiri Baathúr. The duel decided the fate of the city of Einez.

## Background

Jiri Baathúr was beaten after he lost the decisive battle of Ravaged manor field. He retreated back to city of Dives to consolidate his forces.

After this Jiri began his campaign west. He marched his army to Prol which he scorched. After this he marched to Halid, which defected to Jiri's side.

Jiri had to siege the city of Tadaheim as it had a proper garrison. The brief siege is won and Jiri continues his march westward. The only thing between Jiri and the massive city of Meta-Gudur is the city of Einez.

## Duel

As Jiri entered the city of Einez, he noticed that no man dared to foil him. Jiri strolled into Einez alongside his absolutely loyal general Hamina. The city was just about to give offerings to Jiri so that he would spare that, however, one man stepped forward.

Gallu Strongbone was a man known by everyone living in Einez. He was a far relative of the regent Sexton Scale, but Gallu was dumb. He was known for his strength and idiocy. As Gallu balked Jiri, everybody wanted to cheer, yet everybody was too scared. Their hearts cheered Gallu on. Gallu invited Jiri into an duel which Jiri consented to. Gallu was recorded threatening Jiri by saying "*My bones are as hard as steel*".

Gallu charged Jiri and tried to strike him with his fist, which Jiri averted. Jiri then riposted Gallu with his Amagad Greatsword. Much for everybody's amazement, the blade did not go through. Gallu punched Jiri hard and Jiri actually had to take some steps back. However, as Gallu charged his next attack, Jiri managed to pull off brilliant fencing and managed to stab Gallu's brains through Gallu's eyes. The battle lasted for only 54 seconds.

## Aftermath

After the Battle of Einez, Jiri scorched the city and moved on to Meta-Gudur. Gallu's son Galthur was taken captive by Jiri.

Much to Librotek's terror, these very men of his nightmares were about to invade Caenor and Librotek was enlisted to fight against them.
Athina Scale

Athina was captured by Jiri Baathúr during the Edelmaa Great War, which proved to be a decisive move, as Athina Scale had legitimate claim to the throne of Workhold. Athina became quite attached to her captor and Jiri married Athina during the War. This action gave Jiri a proper claim to the throne, which eventually led Jiri to become the King of Workhold.

Royal Navy

### Commander

**Lord of the High Seas Lehr Cheffansequiver*** Fleet Admiral Lopelius Schweppenburg
* Fleet Admiral Dann Strickt

The Royal Navy of Workhold is the second branch of the Armed forces of Workhold. The Royal Navy however, was largely ignored from year 1 to 294. The Royal Navy became the integral part of Workhold after the Borian War during which King Jiri realized how many foreign invasions could be completely prevented with a powerful fleet safe guarding the shores of Edelmaa. Before 294 the Royal Navy was mockingly called the Royal Sealines, since it was mainly used to transport troops or to trade. The Royal Navy holds four men as the Founding Fathers of the RN, the men are: Sir Lothbrok Voorst, Lannes Hay, Hayao Heihachiro and Filiki Caradore.

## Historical Background

The Royal Navy was formed in 1 After Keep at the onset of King Levi's participation in the War agains the Peasant King. The fleet consisted of two small cogs that helped Levi to transport handful of his troops quickly to seize the unguarded city of Dives, when the garrisoning army had left. After the establishment of the Kingdom of Workhold and the proper formation of the Royal Army, the Royal Navy was largely ignored. The two cogs remained in service as the only vessels until the Raid of Workhold around 70. Workhold became a province of Ronmag and the Army and Navy of Ronmag used many harbors as navalbases.

In 91, the Worvian Revolutionary War began and many Worvian loyalist seamen that were part of the Ronmag navy began a mutiny. Few proper vessels of war were captured and postwar were formally merged into the Royal Navy. These vessels were new to the Worvians, as their culture was not a sea faring one and they didn't know how to build good ships, especially ships of war. The vessels taken form the Ronmag became prized ships and replaced the old cogs. However, the Worvians didn't bother reverse engineering the Ronmag ships and building their own variants and lazily left the Royal Navy to survive with the few dozen captured Ronmag ships.

During the Edelmaa Great War these ships wouldn't see much action as the war was largely fought on land, with the few exceptions of naval combat. The Battle of Gudur bay saw the largest naval battle of the history of Edelmaa at that point were the Peasant revolt ships attacked ships of Jiri Baathúr. The fleet of Jiri Baathúr won and sank the entire Peasant fleet, but they lost all their ships in the process as well. When Jiri became the King of Workhold at the end of the war, he inherited the blasé attitude towards the navy and didn't bother to upgrade it.

The Royal Navy began to finally receive attention at the end of the Borian War, when the desire for massive militarization craze saw the usefulness of the Royal Navy. Sir Lothbrok Voorst requested the Royal Navy to construct a modern and capable navy. They hired a Yopeian shipwright Hayao Heihachiro to design them ships and an Olian naval strategist Filiki Caradore to guide them on naval warfare. From 294 to 305, the Royal Navy had become a respectable naval force capable to keep the seas safe.
Paul Commodus

**Paul Commodus** was the Lord-Lexitor of Mennos van Dire and the Legio Ardostum. Paul was known as one of the most cruel and ruthless men of Edelmaa. Paul not only served as a loyal subordinate of Mennos, but was his friend. Paul also co-founded the Ardian Legion together with Mennos. Paul died in 308 during the Fortudatum Crusade when fighting the Amagad Prince Melkon.
