Thread: 3.4 speculation

Modern Garlemald is, at most, about 50 years old; their rise to power is detailed on Solus zos Galvus' bio that I posted on the last page. That's the most in-depth look at their history we have, but given it's only 50 years (give or take), I don't think it's been warped and lost to the mists of time like the truth behind the Dragonsong War was. There may be more to the story we don't know... there probably is... but unless it's some earth-shaking twist it's not really going to change my opinion on them.

I actually like Regula. Not as much as Gaius, but he's very mysterious and I'm not sure what direction they're going with him. I like a good mystery.

Reading over that bio i noticed solus attained the 'undivided' support of garlemalds people to become an emperor, so i have to wonder what his revolution brought in comparison to the former republic.

My current headcannon is that Garlemald has a history of warfare with it's neighbors and were often on the defensive, owing to their heightened spacial awareness they probably made good artillery to keep invaders at bay but didn't have the power to go on the offense, probably due to their smaller numbers and their inability to use magic.
