Elidor (El-eye-dor) – The most southerly of the kingdoms of Weyland. The Fey hold less sway here than anywhere else but they are still present. Wights can still be found and Drowned Ones gather in ancient pools. At its heart lies an ancient Eldren structure, a massive bridge that crosses the gorge above the river. Around it has grown a place of trade now called “Bridges Market” this sizeable town is the hub where most trade between Albion and the Western Kingdoms occurs. The treaty between Albion and The Western Kindoms ensures that this place is a haven for trade.

Although the Elidor has a deep gorge and the White River carving its way from Vale City in Albion down to the coast in South Western Elidor it is a place or mostly gentle rolling hills, meandering rivers and woodland. Farms dot the land with fields, orchards, livestock and fish pools. Along the banks of the White River which in turn sits at the bottom of a deep gorge is a vast swamp; here the roads run along causeways above the murky waters. In the swamp swarms of biting insects gather, marsh lights can be seen floating above the weed infested waters.  Elidor is the warmest of the kingdoms of Albion however it still has frequent fog/mists. Road Wardens frequently patrol the highways and causeways protecting merchants and travellers.

There are no cities in Elidor; the King of Elidor frequently moves from manor to manor, his retinue travel with him, however around Hallows Night he will stay at Bridges Market where he resides for a full month. The King of Elidor, unlike most of his peers is an appointed position that is held for life. The suitable candidate travels to the heart of The Sellian Forest where he presents himself to the Seelie Queen, if found suitable and having completed the tasks set to him then he will return to become the new king. However if the candidate is found unsuitable then their life if forfeit and they will never be seen again. The last time anyone tried to circumvent the choosing of the king, Wights attacked the offending party and killed all involved with the plot.

The current King is Dorval Cuithlan, a middle aged man who was a merchant. He has a wife and 3 children all of whom are well regarded by the folk of Elidor. King Dorval is a skilled negotiator who ascended the throne some 10 years ago. He has adapted well to his position. Only once in 10 years has he needed to call the Seelie court to his aid to defend Elidor, the Wights that came killed all interlopers and added to their ranks which sent a stark reminder that Elidor is still a Fey Realm.

Hoplites

The Hoplites of the Rividian Empire are the epitome of martial prowess and discipline, representing the pinnacle of what it means to be a warrior in this grand and storied civilization. These elite soldiers are meticulously trained from a young age, instilled with a deep understanding of strategy, tactics, and the art of war. However, their training goes beyond mere physical prowess; it encompasses the glorification of the warrior's spirit, an ethos that forges an unbreakable bond between members of a military unit.

The journey to become a Hoplite begins with rigorous physical and mental conditioning. Young recruits undergo years of training designed to hone their bodies into perfect instruments of war. They are taught to endure pain, resist fatigue, and push the limits of their endurance. The training regimen includes intense physical exercises, mock battles, and the study of various combat techniques. Recruits learn to wield a variety of weapons, from spears and swords to shields and bows, becoming masters of each.

Yet, what truly sets the Hoplites apart is their deep-rooted sense of camaraderie and honor. From the very beginning, they are taught that their strength lies not in individual prowess, but in the unity and cooperation of their unit. This philosophy is ingrained in them through countless drills and exercises that emphasize teamwork and coordinated action. The Hoplites develop an unbreakable bond with their comrades, understanding that their lives depend on each other in the heat of battle.

The ethos of the Hoplite is also shaped by a profound respect for the warrior's spirit. This includes a commitment to honor, loyalty, and the pursuit of excellence in all things. Hoplites are taught to carry themselves with dignity and to act with integrity, both on and off the battlefield. Their training includes lessons in philosophy, ethics, and leadership, ensuring that they are not only formidable warriors but also wise and just leaders.

In combat, the Hoplites of the Rividian Empire are a fearsome sight to behold. They fight in tightly-knit units, using coordinated tactics to overwhelm their enemies. The cornerstone of their combat strategy is the phalanx formation, a dense grouping of soldiers with overlapping shields and outward-pointing spears. This formation provides both offensive and defensive capabilities, allowing the Hoplites to advance steadily while protecting themselves from enemy attacks.

The discipline and coordination required to maintain the phalanx are immense, but the Hoplites excel in this regard. Each soldier understands their role within the formation, moving with precision and responding instantly to commands. This cohesion allows the Hoplites to adapt quickly to changing battlefield conditions, exploiting weaknesses in the enemy's lines and maintaining their own impenetrable defense.

The Hoplites' reputation extends far beyond the borders of the Rividian Empire. Their exploits and victories are the stuff of legend, inspiring both awe and fear in those who hear of their deeds. They have faced countless adversaries, from rival empires to barbarian hordes, and emerged victorious time and again. Their success is a testament to their rigorous training, unwavering dedication, and the unbreakable bonds that unite them.

In addition to their combat prowess, the Hoplites are also revered for their contributions to the cultural and intellectual life of the Rividian Empire. Many Hoplites go on to become respected scholars, statesmen, and leaders, bringing their discipline, honor, and wisdom to all aspects of society. Their legacy is one of excellence and service, embodying the highest ideals of their civilization.
