Message: <blockquote data-quote="Crothian" data-source="post: 1369978" data-attributes="member: 232">The Corsyrian people have a long and rich history.  Of all the human empires, theirs has lasted the longest and withstood the most.  Their capital city, Tal Badaar is the perfect example and proof of their drive and dedication.  The city is built in the middle of large desert.  But with the use of many thousands of slaves and some great magics, the Corsyrians were able to build the capital.      The Corsyrians are a magical people; they respect Wizards and their knowledge.  This has caused them to be less religious then many of the other nations.  It has also caused them to fear and hunt down unnatural spell casters like sorcerers.  All Wizards in Corsyrian are brought to Tal Badaar and taught under the greatest Wizards in the world.  Nadji is the head Wizard of Corsyrian and one of the Circle of Nine.  The Circle of Nine is a group of the most powerful wizards in the world.  They protect everyone from off world invaders like demons and devils.  They have nothing to do with the politics of the world; they protect it all from the greater dangers of the Planes.      The royal family of Corsyria is absolutely huge.  The palace in Tal Badaar is only occupied by the royal family.  The servants and guards are 12th cousins or there about to the thrown.  Everyone in the palace is of the royal blood, no matter how diluted it may be.  People of the royal blood are treated with great respect and enjoy great perks in Corsyrian society.  So, it was odd when the third son of the Kings brother was taken by the Caladonians and the Corsyrians did not attempt to get him back.    The Corsyrians and Caladonians as nations did not like each other.  In the past few hundred years each had conquered the other for a bit of time, but at the present they were both separate nations.  They are separated by a large sea and much trade and many naval skirmishes have happened on it.  One of the skirmishes the Caladonians took prisoners, among them the five year old nephew of the king.      He was taken to Calador, the Caladian capital and raised by the Town Family.  The Towns were one of the five noble houses.  They were personal advisors to the king and held many positions of power with in the country.  They renamed the boy Guy and raised him as one of their own.  He was well educated and treated well.  It was obvious hew was Corsyrian, but they never caused any problems.  Guy became a great horse rider and excelled at using the bow while mounted.  But things were always easy for him and he never felt fully at home there.  His own people were known to him, he was familiar with the culture and their customs.  But they were a little alien to him as well.      So, one day he just set out from Calador on his horse.  He road east to the small city of Thesden.  He hoped that he would be able to find something one his own that he could grab onto and make his own.</blockquote>
