It all began on the fateful night of November 25, 1154. The next morning, the heir of a Dovian duke was to be married—however, it just so happened that his bride instead chose to elope with his bastard half-brother, causing a scandal that won both the shock and outrage of the Dovian nobility.
In order to save face, the duke’s heir was quickly betrothed to another woman, whom he wed on the morning of December 9 of that same year. The night before, several of his friends—including his cousin Roderick, the second-born Prince of Dovia—treated him to a forbidden bachelor party at a local tavern, where Roderick got drunk enough to publicly declare his dissatisfaction with the leadership of his father and older brother. Needless to say, the king promptly told Roderick that he had until the end of the year to leave the kingdom.
And so it was that Prince Roderick, along with his beautiful, yet licentious wife, their newborn son, a couple of spare-non-heir nobles, and a handful of tag-along peasants left Dovia and formed in a new kingdom, nestled away in a valley said to have been abandoned by the children of the gods. This is the story of that kingdom throughout its years, from the founding reign of King Roderick onward.
Please note: For the first twenty posts or so, the photo quality is rather bad. Those were the days of Maxis skins and eyes, low texture detail, and a complete lack of a lighting mod.
