Legacy of Oria Agal
Oria Agal, was a feudal kingdom that was established in year -2153 on planet Sernpidal, in the southernmost regions. The name probably means "Land of the Iron Kings", from Valin dialect: Oria- (iron, metal) + (n)Agal (king, ruler, land of king). The kingdom was founded by Usil The Binder, the first king of Oria Agal and all its subjects, when he united distant tribes and petty city states in the South under one banner, using both statecraft and war. Because of the high metal deposits in the magma caverns to the far north, tools and other craftsmanship goods became the main export of the new kingdom; it also was a source for the massive king’s armories and capacity to wage wars against its northern neighbors across the great dessert that separated North and South lands. For the next 500 years, the kingdom was ruled under one royal bloodline – House Osiria, which had the hammer and anvil as its royal sigil, and ruled its subjects with iron will.

Decline
King folly and the plots of minor noble houses had undone what war and disease could not. Oria Agal was no more; divided yet again into petty kingdoms and fiefdoms. The largest of these were the Kingdom of Bomeria and Kingdom of Thule, who waged countless wars between each other over the years, never gaining a clear advantage over the other in terms of diplomacy, trade or military. The line of House Osiria itself was no more in the last day of year -1650, as the king and his queen laid dead, their throats cut and the royal palace sacked and burned to the ground by the conspirators who sought to usurp the throne. Though there is a legend that their young son; Veles III survived and never died by the blade or in ensuing fires, as his body was never found. The usurpers soon forgot about him as they turned on each other in the following power struggles that broke the kingdom apart.

Vash’Thorak or commonly called by the natives of the planet the ‘’Iron Crown’’ was the crown worn by the ruling kings of Kingdom of Oria Agal. It was first forged by the king Azar the Smith (third king of Oria Agal) to serve as the symbol of his rule and the House Osiria. It was forged from Durasteel and from strange rare metallic alloy called Ketal, that was created from combining crystalline formations known as darkstones with other metals found in the magma caverns of planet Sernpidal.

Akuun'Emal, also called as the Amulet of Iron Kings in the legends of Oria Agal, was an amulet that was in possession of House Osiria and was considered as the royal treasure. Origins of the amulet are vague, but it is believed that a traveling force sensitive wanderer gave the amulet as a gift to, at that time reigning king Veles I, for allowing him to stay and study the deep magma caverns of the South.

Valdiana was born in year -1890. Since birth Valdiana had great talent as a singer and studied the art on Termuk's Retreat on the Oasis of Jeld near eastern Dune Sea on planet Sernpidal. She learned from the most renowned bards in the Eastern lands and was dubbed "The Harpy-Princess" of Oria Agal. Valdiana spent most of her young life in artistic and philosophical pursuits. She spent time in caravans and as such visited most of the places around the great Dune Seas and beyond. Despite claiming that she had no interest in leadership and politics, the young woman found herself becoming the leader of whatever creative community she found herself in. She received little training in the martial arts, but learned less orthodox ways of defending herself in her travels across Sernpidal. She was always seen carrying an Lute which had strange metallic strings that reflected light in various tones and produced an rich melody when struck. Despite the eons that passed after the death of Valdiana, the lute found its way to the Feraie Auction House where it was sold to the highest bidder.

Type | Legacy item of Oria Agal |
House Veytin was a noble house in Kingdom of Oria Agal. Because of the close bloodties with the ruling house Osiria, they were also targets of conspiracy that eventually broke the kingdom apart. After the tragic events in the year -1650, when the royal family was killed, the Veytin were declared as a renegade house by the new usurper king. This led to the decision of fleeing the planet. No records have remained that would tell more of the journey that followed, or to where the House of Veyin fled. Nothing is known besides, that one day a strange ring that looked similar to the one that served as signet ring of House Veytin appeared in Caldria's black markets. Analysis later proved it to be the genuine piece of history and it was sold at Feraie Auction House.
