The Kingdom of Capitar has one city called Resolve. It’s thief turned King, Roland, finds himself at war with the Empire of Yithril led by the Emperor Verga.
..
I am Ezmir, son of Athalyir. This is the chronicle of the Kingdom of Capitar and the story of Roland its King. His fledgling Outpost of Resolve with only 14 souls in it, was already under siege by the Fallen Empire of Yithril.

“I’m not feeling good about this,” Roland said to Janusk the Scribe.
“You have nothing to fear, you are a channeler, a being of mystical power and might,” Janusk replied.
Roland grunted.
“Look, there’s 4 of us. Me, you, William – and he’s a pioneer, and a bear that is possibly diseased.”
“He is green,” Janusk agreed. “I am sure Muggles will do his best.”
“Muggles?”
“Yes.”
“You named the bear?”
“Yes.”
“You named the bear, Muggles?”
“It seemed fitting.”

“Let’s move on. Our only hope is to find some allies. There’s only 14 of us in the Outpost so far. Our Outpost is surrounded by a swamp.”
Roland ordered William to head a bit south to scout for something that could help him. Unfortunately, what he found were soldiers of Yithril!
Unarmed, William only had his fists.
William was lost.
The battle was close enough that Roland was able to look at what the enemy was armed with.
“This could be trouble, they have good weapons and they are equipped with armor,” Roland observed.

After a couple such battles, Roland was exhausted of mana. It would take a few days for him to recover himself. Without his magical power, all hope would be lost. If Verga himself came forward, with his power, we knew we would be doomed. The farm at Resolve had finally been completed and with the available food housing began to be constructed to welcome the people from the wilds looking for a society to be apart of.
Teleporting back, Roland consulted with the Lore Master on what magical advantages they might make use of. The best bet was to gain the help of the sentient spiders that he had heard of. Sage Master agreed and said they were working as fast as they could. That was when the Lore Master suggested Brilliance.

The second month begins
In less than a month Roland had founded a Kingdom. Its capital, Resolve, now had 28 people living in it. A malevolent neighbor, Verga, had set up his own Empire nearby and had declared war.

Even better, the Sages had deciphered the old texts and found the location and way to communicate with the legendary sentient spiders.
Using up all of the wealth we had accumulated, we were able to recruit 8 spiders for the cause.
The only downside is that the world was getting more dangerous. Bloody adventurers.
