The Valley of Kings

The valley is a shallow basin around the mountains and peaks that make up the region of Thrace.

ll around the central isle of Alderias are monuments that resemble the heroes of the past deemed valiant and virtuous enough to be canonized by the Alder, as well as be revered by the kings and queens of Alderia. The first statues were of Tobias Rah Sham and Sam'el the Outlander. The next statues were of Kings Elser and Esris Dant, where the term “Valley of Kings” was coined.

The basin was originally flat and dry, used as a rallying point for Shuul’dor and his armies. But it was flooded by Rah Sham after the Battle of the Colossus, but drained again by Shuul’dor as a symbol of his return, thus it was the site of the War of the Awakening’s legendary Battle of the Valley of Kings.

The statues include: Rah Sham, The Outlander, Esris Dant, Elser Dant, Steph Endaras, Inai Nodâra, Ramorious Thrax, Segîas Ilmîriso, Lia Vilanos, Morgans Rook, Saoirse MacTavish, Athanasius Commenor IV, Agius Trafer, and Jhan Zarai, decreed the final statue to be erected.
