Monuments of Edelmaa

Edelmaa has had many monuments all around the continent though many have been desecrated or removed due to changes in politics. These monuments are usually dedicated to Great Men or Dead Warriors of a certain battle or war.

## The Statue of King Levi facing Eastwards

In the Trident Road North above Levi's Castle stands tall the Statue of the Great King Levi the founder of Workhold and the Hero of the Unification Wars. Levi was loved by all peoples even peasants. Though the Waldisians originally were skeptical of Levi, they too eventually began to respect the King.

When the Ronmag attacked in 70AK the Army of Workhold collapsed and the after Levi went hiding the people lost motivation to fight. It was when Samuel Berghof a local bum from the city of Antikea rallied his friends to fight against the Ronmag Garrison that they made contact with Levi. With the support of Levi they managed to rally and unify the peoples of Edelmaa to their side and begin the successful Worvian Revolutionary War. Levi however, died in the very first battle, the Battle of Small manor field. Levi was succeeded by his son Henrinion and after the War they erected the mighty 15m high statue of Levi facing Eastwards toward the Ronmag, the people he defeated.

## Statue of St. Leondras stepping over the Bastard King killer

In the barren island of Ili-Fien one will not find anything else except the massive 17m high statue of Prince Leondras Baathúr who steps on the head of Marrius Gonvelsia, the man that slayed Leondras.

Leondras was a man of mercy however, he did not lack might and viciousness. He was a family man, putting his Baathúr family over anything else, even the Kingdom itself. After his dear father King Jiri went hiding inside the Hidden Cainwall castle Leondras was deeply upset. He was afraid for his father's health. When the news of the plans to invade Ili-Fien rose up in order to keep Jiri safe, Leondras supported it fervently. Though he did not command the campaign, he was the symbol of the leadership for he was a prince. He personally lead the Attack on the City of Stenval. He also accompanied the army to the Trident River and participated in the Battle of Trident River. During the Battle, a foreign mercenery from Olia, Marrius Gonvelsia killed Leondras and collected the legendary Amagad Greatsword that was granted upon Leondras. This made Leondras a martyr of Jimgoism and he was saintified. The statue was erected not soon after.

## Small Manor Memorials

The Small Manor Memorial is probably the most known monument of Edelmaa for it was first built in 90AK after the Battle of Small manor field which ignited the Worvian Revolutionary War. The Memorial is a statue of a Peasant soldier claded in light armor and wielding a spear. He is standing on a rock which has a host of names. These names are names of the soldiers participating in the Battle in the Worvian side.

In 173 a new Memorial was built commemorating the soldiers that fell during the Great Battle of Ravaged manor field. These names were of the soldiers fighting for the Grand Coalition. The monument is featuring Four different soldiers with different heraldic insignia. One Peasant soldier, One Baathúrian Soldier, One Royalist Soldier and One Hefaian Soldier. All four soldiers clashing their swords together as a sign of unity. Under their blades lie the corpse of an Olian soldier.

There were talks of adding the names of the Soldiers fighting in the Battle of Ravaged manor field as well, but this was seen as too controversial so it was decided not to do this. As Jiri did not want to commemorate the soldiers that defeated him, but he did not want to agitate the old Royalists by only commemorating his own soldiers.

## Eion Valley Memorial

A small Memorial was built in the Eion Valley to commemorate the soldiers participating in the Battle of Eion Valley. However, quite uniquely this memorial also commemorated the fallen soldiers of the Borian Army, the defeated ones. This was done in order to once again unify the peoples of Edelmaa under King Jiri. Jiri did not want to show off to the Borians and rub it in their faces. Jiri rather had them commemorated and respected as well. Though this site has become a shrine to Borian nationalists and veterans. Nowadays 2 Sentinels of the Royal Army guard this very memorial in order to shoo off nationalists from both sides.
