Draga Of The Vanguard 14 Vanguard Guide: Asfáleia's Position

The Empire des Huit has taken over 80% of the the 3rd continent Drëtten. With its ma.s.sive reach it is one of the most feared and respected places in the known world. Divided by decision, the county had eight separate states each ruled by one family. It was once a monarchy but a two eyed demon wiped them out. The first four states; Gallos, Lune, Redfield and Libra, are owned by the Sabre, Scáth, Krieg and Vivlia families respectively. Their capitals cities are Edalbe, Twilight, Battaille and Incursia. No major events have occured so far, and these cities shall be discussed in later pages.

The lower half of the country belongs to the Clypeus, Dragã, Âme and the Rego families. They command the states of Statevo, Fogo Reis, Archidia and Dloge. Their capitals respectively are Asfáleia, Grayscale, Avenha and Dia. As of recent, a major event is happening neat Statevo's capital, Asfáleia. We wait eagerly for news of the event. In honor of this, we shall use this page to explain the area where Asfáleia is located.

Surrounded by monster infested forests, Asfáleia is known for its impossible defence. A military city, this became the shield of the Empire des Huit due to it being right next to the remaining 20 percent of the continent. Its wall have been lined with iron, and even when this was not the case it stood against the legendary Hydra's attacks until the 8 knights appeared.

There are numerous minor cities around this high level fort. To its east, there are the cities of Durell, Pa.s.sal, Urako and once...Viel, which was sadly destroyed by a dragon which was repelled by Durell. To the west, their are small villages owned by local chiefs, with the names of Khsa, Redrig, Dhal and a few others in various directions. There was once a village of unrivalled marshall techniques. But they were wiped out by a two eyed demon, No .8, Shadow. Their huts remain empty till today.... Moving on!

To the north of Asfáleia is an extremely dense forest filled with abnormally tall trees and filled to the brim with monsters, Bois Monstre. Before this horror of a forest was the gentle town of Paix, which had found ways to utilize this evil forest. Then was destroyed by an unknown ent.i.ty. Vener bless their souls.

The south leads to a desert known as Dragon's Ruins due to its extreme heat...and the fact that the dragon Meredieviel lives there, but he's inactive so most people can pa.s.s freely...Most people. At the end of this vast wasteland, another nation exists called Ramborg exists. They are a slave driven empire...doing even the most menial jobs with slaves from other lands. We don't know how many slaves they have acquired from the Empire des Huit, but we can say that our citizens are definetely slaves there.

As the capital of the Knights of the Shield, our hope is that Asfáleia continues to stand strong. For when it falls, all h.e.l.l shall break loose.
