Solsgaard

The Kingdom of Solsgaard had existed for many centuries prior to the great disappearance of the Karmic people. However the kingdom existed in an entirely different universe and was only established on Eldham after the events of the great disappearance. The kingdom is led by two Archons in a dual monarchy from the Tyburn dynasty and rules over all the former lands of the United Federation of Tierre

The Great Disappearance of the Karmic People
The meditation of the master gurus began like any other. The many universal truths and cosmic mysteries were pondered under the bright sun in the sacred mountains of Visraya. However this time the gurus appeared to uncover something not known before, ''Everyone has many faces not just one, the individual does not exist. There are other versions of ourselves in other unreachable places. We must unite with these other versions to achieve our whole being and pass out of this world to the next place''. Upon this truth being realized a great cataclysm occurred. The karmic people vanished, or well at least their souls and beings did. Their bodies remained however. These empty vessels soon awoke in a new strange unfamiliar place they spoke of a place called Solsgaard.

Founding of Solstice
The Solsgaardians after awaking in Visraya quickly rallied behind their Archons Matanic and Travis who vowed to re-establish a Solsgaardian homeland in this strange new place. Many of the Solsgaardian wished to leave this city where they had awoken. They felt unprotected due to the haunted nature of the empty and mysterious city whose inhabitants seem to have all disappeared. They also feared that the city would be filled with many hostile ancestor spirits as if they stayed, they would be stealing the homes and belongings of others.

The Archons agreed and set out to make a city on a site with no prior habitation. When the scouts returned they spoke of a fertile patch located within the desert. The Archons and their people began a long march to this new location. Along the way many died of disease, starvation and thirst. However their remains were carried by the colonists to the new site. The party eventually reached the fertile patch and founded the city of Solstice. The city was built rapidly helped also by the former subjects of Tierre who were won over by the diplomacy and charm of the Archons and their mysterious resemblance to the former Karmic people in appearance and decided to join this new kingdom.

Construction of Solstice
The building of solstice was efficient and precise. The Archons detailed their plans to the city council who were able to effectively carry out these plans. The designs included most notably the first temple of Azan, a holy site for the Solsgaardian's religion. Additionally the city walls were constructed to defend Solstice against any would be invaders

Dissolution
Archon Matanic felt a calling to Azan, they wished to better understand this force and decided to retreat into the wilderness to learn and mediate about the many philosophical and spiritual ideas about the nature of Azanti. The entire trust of Solsgaard was left to Archon Travis who bid Matanic farewell and good luck in their holy mission. However fate was not on the Archons side as Archon Travis passed away shortly after Matanic's departure. It is thought Travis died from some mysterious rare disease brought by traders although some suspect poison by ambitious nobles. Solsgaard being a state of many different people's simply dissolved as the lack of central authority no longer held the many different states together. This resulted in Ravenguard seizing direct control of the territory. Solstice however survived for a while with the city council taking charge of the city and sending a search party to find Archon Matanic. Unknown to them however a great force loomed over the city, the Praetorians who marched into the poorly defend city and captured it making it their new capital.
