Styrgel

Children of Khyram, as they're often called, Styric people are battle-hardened. Rarely a generation passes without some kind of battle coming about, whether it be with the neighboring nations or a civil conflict within their own borders. Despite their war-mongering nature, Khyram's people tend to be as carefree as they are hardworking.

History
Local skirmishes that break out are generally over things such as local leadership, traders, resources, and especially farmland. Over time, Styrgel's land has become more and more infertile, making tensions rise once again. What troubles modern day Styric is they're inability to call for help from their neighbors. This is partially on account of their pride, as well as burned bridges from wars past.

Styrgel's current high king is a warrior cleric of Khyram, named Balhazar Hjalmar. Shortly after his ascension, rumors circulated of another war between Styrgel and Laonin, leaving Hedrek on the defensive.

Styrgel sits to the north, with the Formachen mountains on it's western border, and Herdrek sitting on it's east.
