☀️ Arselia and Akonia

The new emperor possessed great personal strength and charisma, was unparalleled in battles and duels, was intelligent and handsome, but lacked wisdom as a politician. As a result, Akkerwald was in a rather deplorable state, which the Akkerwald Forest poetically described, “decorated” with numerous gallows – those who disagreed with the new ruler’s policies. Thiary will restore the coliseum and make the fights there even more significant and spectacular, legalize the slave trade, and make a number of other dubious and despotic decisions. For example, Girion Warenstash, responsible for a series of brutal murders and the organization of an underground slave trade in the capital, was pardoned in exchange for a collection of rare rings. Subsequently, this man became the main link in the empire’s official slave-owning network and even received a state position. In the “Dignity” store, after the suicide of Edis Rittington, paintings and other interior items began to appear depicting Thiary. On the armor manufactured in Ladane, it was also ordered to depict the emperor’s face. Khan Yongji, who openly spoke out against Thiary’s tyranny, was sentenced to death, but thanks to her great martial arts skills, she managed to save her life and escape. Not leaving such an insult unanswered, Thiary “punished” the Tehan Quarter, which Yongji had previously led and which was dear to her. He turned the “Serenity” school into another brothel (cheaper compared to a similar establishment on Imperial Street), while the “Academy of Idols” was to train his future concubines from that day on. As it turned out, the new emperor, with rare exceptions, preferred younger women. Many of Thiary’s concubines, including Alice Lyt and “Impy,” became mothers of his numerous offspring, but Thiary himself never married anyone, believing that no one in this world was worthy to stand equal to him.
