Luria Vesperi
Luria Vesperi was born of the Duchy of Shinnen. The former Duke of Shinnen, Bipel Coldchest seceded, with full permission of the King Tybalt, from the Kingdom of Luria Nova in order to both keep the balance of power in Greater Luria and to focus on the maintenance of the more remote regions of the realm.
Luria Vesperi is a land of moderation and peace. While the sun may burn with heated words and harsh rhetoric when it rises in the East, it is in the darkening of the West that tempers cool and rational discourse holds sway.
History
The creation of the realm was carefully planned by both the nobles of the Shinnen Duchy the the Crown of Luria Nova. However, as the duchy prepared to separate, the entire Lurian Peninsula was swept up in the political drama caused by the attack on King Koli Bedwyr of Pian en Luries and the subsequent conflict in the Halls of Luria. As the situation rapidly escalated into war the nobles of Luria Vesperi vocally advocated for peace and remained militarily neutral in the battles that followed.
Government
Luria Vesperi is a Monarchy and as such is organized under the leadership of a King or Queen. The Monarch then decides who sits on the other positions of the Realm Council - namely the Grand Marshal, the High Treasurer, and the High Magistrate.

Laws Regarding Adventurers
Adventurers have been invited and encouraged to work freely and unhindered within our borders to help keep the monster and undead problem under better control, in turn freeing more of our army for other tasks. Adventurers, therefore, are protected. If any of them break our laws or insult any of our Nobles, the matter should be brought to the attention of the High Magistrate, who will deal with the matter through the courts.
The Law
The laws exist not to punish, but to protect the nobles of the realm. If another noble is, in any way, harming yourself or the realm by the breaking of laws, please report them to the High Magistrate.
