House Virendal commands the Crimson Sea, controlling the most important trade routes of Valdraen. Feared for its powerful fleet and naval influence, Kaelen strengthened the house through strategic alliances and well-equipped ships, making Virendal indispensable in imperial disputes and conflicts between provinces.
About this World
Valdraen is a land of extremes: scorching deserts, frozen peaks, blood-red seas, and endless fertile plains. Five great houses weave plots, forge alliances, and clash in battle, while the prince’s choice could tip the balance between peace and war. Secrets, danger, and power pulse through every corner. This is my first world, and I’m still shaping it, making it even more epic.
World History
Valdraen was forged during the War of the Five Blades, when the great houses almost completely destroyed the continent. Now peace survives thanks to alliances and marriages. Prince Kael's marriage could decide the fate of Valdraen.
