The Aluvian Kingdom on Ispar lies east from Viamont. To the south lies the Luparvium Mountain Range which constitutes a natural border with Milantos. The Canfeld River flows from the Luparvium Mountains to the Ironsea.[1]

Important cities and fortifications include the city of Celdon, the fortress of Thrushhaven and Castle Holdfast.[1]

History

When the Rouleans brought imperial order to most of the lands around the Ironsea, they saw no benefit in conquering the Viamontian peninsula, and the tribes that would become the nations of Viamont and Aluvia remained chaotic and disorganized.[2]

During the invasion of the Viamontian armor of King Elous VI, High King Pwyll II was slain and his army was defeated by the Viamontians on the battlefield of the Plain of Ayrifal .[1][3] The sons and male cousins of the High King had been slain in battle at his side. His bloodline was rounded up and executed by the Viamontian Royal Governor, Alfric immediately after his victory.[4]

During the rule of Queen Alfrega, granddaughter of Alfric and daughter of Theolaud, the Aluvian resistance against the Viamontian occupation became more organized. An important faction were the Orts under the leadership of Hendac Tharesun and Harlune.[1]

Only during the rule of Osric, peace was established. By the time of the rule of his son Pwyll III, the peoples of Aluvia had united as one, prospering under the High King’s kind and just reign. Pwyll III banded together the kingdom’s knights, forming an order of honor and chivalry, and so began a golden age.[1][5]

Royalty and Rulers

Early rulers of Aluvia are unknown, put it can be assumed that Pwyll II was not the first king, by the fact that he is the second to bear that name, and by the fact that when Viamont invaded in 804 RC, Thrushhaven was referred to as the traditional highland fortress of the Aluvian Kings.[1].

Name Bloodline Rank/Title Years of reign
Pwyll II[3] Unknown High King[1] 787 RC - 804 RC[3]
Alfric[3] Unknown King, Viamont Royal Governor[1] 804 RC - 824 RC[3]
Theolaud[3] Son of Alfric[1] King[1] 824 RC - 854 RC[3]
Alfrega[3] Daughter of Theolaud[1] Queen[1] 854 RC - 868 RC[3]
Osric[3] Son of Alfrega[1] High King[6] 868 RC - 899 RC[3]
Pwyll III[3] Son of Osric[6] High King[6] 899 RC - 924 RC[3]
Cellric II[3] Son of Pwyll[Citation Needed] King[Citation Needed] 924 RC - ??[3]
Cedraic[6] Unknown King[6] ?? - 1261 RC - ?? *
Cedraic III[3] Unknown King 1311 - ??[3] **

* This event comes from beta information. Being a current event of the time, this would be placed at 1286 RC (10 PY), but the more recent lore from Throne of Destiny has placed the latest war between Viamont and Aluvia at 1272 RC. So it has instead been placed at 1261 RC (-15 PY), the year when Aluvians first came to Dereth. This is possibly Cedraic III.
** If the date given is correct, this event has not occurred yet, and will not occur until PY 35 (2024 Earth). It is more likely that, since the years of the Aluvian rulers were written in Beta and the Ages of the Empyreans (from which we derive the PY to RC conversion) were created post-release, that the date is incorrect.
