A Kingdom of Glimmer and Steel

This page can be used for reference for the different Kingdoms and Gods mentioned.

Four Kingdoms of the Fae Realm:

The Kingdom of Misteria: ruled by King Idris and his Queen Wife Harmonia.

The Misterian lands are warm and flat, used mainly for farming. Its people work the gardens to provide vegetables and fruits, which are traded among the other Kingdoms. The Misterian folks are described as calm and joyful, and their King, Idris is often responsible for being the voice of reason whenever there is a council meeting held.

The Kingdom of Surithian: ruled by King Zephyr and his Queen Wife Euphemia.

The Surithian lands are relentlessly hot, the only breeze come from the bordering ocean, Kaitiestia. Many of the Surithian people work as fisherman or take advantage of the open waters to ship goods between the other kingdoms. The people as well as their King often feel underappreciated for the services, they are able to provide, which often causes them to feel a bitter resentment of the other Fae’s.

The Glacierian Kingdom: ruled by King Alberich and Queen Wife Millicent.

Children: Arwyen (Eldest Son, Next in line for the Throne), Adelia (Eldest Daughter), Aurelia (Youngest Daughter).

The lands of Glacierian stay bitterly cold and are often buried under deep snow and ice. Despite these conditions, the Kingdom is known for its weaponry. Many of the Glacierian Fae’s work in the mines to find steel and stones, while others work to forge different types of weaponry. They pride themselves on their craftmanship of beautiful and deadly weapons which are sold at a high price to the other Kingdoms, making Glacierian one of the wealthiest Kingdoms of all.

The Aumandia Kingdom: ruled by King Dashiel. Previously ruled by his father King Balthazar.

Aumandia is often described as the most beautiful of the four kingdoms due to its greenery and high mountains. The weather is often warm with just a slight chill in the air on its off season. The Aumandian Kingdom is worldly known for its disciplined and deadly army. The army is made up of both Fae men and women who train year-round for any unknown threats. The Aumandian Kingdom separates itself from all others by being the most self-reliant of the four. All of its people contribute by growing their own vegetation, hunting their food, and creating many of their own goods. The one thing the Aumandian Kingdom cannot provide for its own people is steel for weaponry’s.

Gods & Goddesses:

Falisian: God of Power and Wings. Falisian chooses what power to give to each Fae as well as if they have wings. Not every Fae is blessed with the gift of power or the gift of wings.

Amarya: Described as the Goddess of love. Amarya chooses who will be mated together and given the gift of a mating bond. Not every Fae is gifted a Mate. Amarya also chooses when to reveal the mating bond.
