The Kingdom of Gracchus, one of the three kingdoms which had started the central province war, was located next to the central province. However, ever since the war, the allied forces of the three kingdoms had fallen on the Sumerian Plain, and the Kingdom of Gracchus wasted away with each passing day.
The Sumerian Kingdom declared war on the neighboring Rosetta Kingdom and Gracchus Kingdom from time to time in reprisal, taking cities and invading lands. Internal contradictions arose. Even the royal family had changed a few times.
The Tory City in the Menlo Hills was a city on the eastern border of Gracchus. One could say it was more an abandoned mine than a city. It used to be a mineral vein, but was built into a city by slaves sent by the king to reclaim the wasteland. They'd lived there for generations.
Many slaves and exiled criminals were sent to this place. Thieves, murderers, slaves, dark wizards, and wandering knights formed this special world.
