Ashiell is a vast, human dominated agrarian nation characterized by sprawling prairies and vital trade arteries. Once a peaceful breadbasket, it is now strained by an ambitious, stalling offensive against the southern Shuinian Empire. The landscape is dotted with small, hardy farming communities and a few fortified hubs. While its military relies on conventional steel and grit, the kingdom faces the emerging threat of Shuinian alchemy and internal friction with resistant elven enclaves.
