Bowei

Legend

“Once a Country twice its size and the first visitors from south of The Rim met when sailing through the now sealed Maiboole's Strait. Making it rich in goods and culture.”

History

It is said that at the dawn of time, Bowei was a prosperous land, stretching almost to Etain and Scia. and Ogland and south of it was an opening to the southern half of the planet. Which made Bowei a place of large cultural interaction and a heaven regarding trade goods. But in the Vular War that started in 3646 F.A., the country broke in half and the eastern part slid into the sea. It also closed Maiboole’s Strait, thus ending all interaction with those south of The Rim and shutting down the functionality of Astral Site/Gates.

With half the country gone and the following turmoil, many strong Tribes came to control various parts, and much warring and raiding took place in the centuries that followed. But around 790 SA the strong tribes began to consume the weak and form Hordes. Despite these brutally swallowed neighbours, they also began to protect their own populations, and slowly, a more peaceful world began to form. Of course, there were still occasional raids and wars, but more and more issues were settled at meetings where several Nobility from each horde or country contributed their opinions and thoughts.

This ‘age of Hordes’ evolved into The Realm covering all 9 Isles and the election of a High King residing in central Midgard at a newly built capitol called Grimsborg. To this realm and king, the various families, tribes, and hordes of Bowie swore their service. So once again, the lands grew in wealth, but it was all abruptly ruined when The Great Invasion hit their lands hard. So now they are thrown back into chaos and disorder, with not even the old Hordes to protect them.
