Kingdom of Almador

The Kingdom of Almador was an ancient Celestial Elf kingdom that once dominated Southern Syltör. It rose after Maxion the Conqueror's influential rule, and lasted until 1500 BSS, under the reign of King Hireon. The end of Almador saw the creation of multiple warlord states. Many years later, the last and sole successor state, the Aurlûnor Velande, would succeed the mantle of the long gone kingdom.

Early Years
Although the Kingdom was said to have lasted over ten thousand years, the actual Kingdom of Almador would not actually form until far later. The most agreed archeological history beginning point of the Almadorians dates back to the Ardol Culture that arrived at around 11,000BCA. Not much is really known about these peoples, but paleoanthropologists had discovered usages of tool use that was advanced than the locals of the region, with the use of reinforced iron as well as magical technology that was possibly used in the rumored ancient civilization of Akan'nash, which is apart of the Elven Migrations theory that usually describes a possible origin point.

By some point, likely around 10,000BCA, the Ardolians would migrate to the northern area which is now known as Alma Province presently, and settled in the region that is now known as Old Town, Sachómar. This is where the origins of the Almadoric Culture are said to have begun to take shape. As the area grew, the small Almadorian state would see itself come into contact with the native humans that were in the region. At this time, the region would be dominated by humans group known as the Xien, Lien, Hoyen, and Xuden, which were apart of the greater Dawou culture group. At first, interactions would be rather peaceful, with trade and some intermingling amongst the native elven population, until the year 9,700BCA, where an incident known as the "Day of Red" was recorded. Discovery of a special artifact which is now known as the Flaming Pearl, was found laying on the ground of a field. This pearl would prompt multiple members of the Xien to attack Sachómar, and eradicated a large number of settlers. This prompted a man by the name of Maxion to rise up, and create an army in order to counter this threat, and begun a massive campaign against the ones who dared attacked his people so violently on a peaceful settlement.
