The Golden Throne

==The Golden Throne== "The most powerful mortal man in Sarovale is the one that sits atop the throne of gold."

From the dawn of the Imperial Kingdom, the Emperor's word is final. He/she has unmitigated power and influence over the realm of mortal beings. To be the Emperor is to a God on earth, much like the Godkin of old.

How does one obtain such a powerful position? It's all in who you know. The current lord Emperor Beiro was annointed with the blood of a Godkin 4 years ago after his predasessor Emperor Hymniak was assassinated by a very powerful, and very insane, evil paladin named Gaul. Beiro at the time was an Imperial Collector for the realm of Dagonvale and once he heard of the Emperor's death he stepped in to lead the council.

See, Beiro, as a Collector, was very crooked and was able to build himself his own personal army known as the "Swordseers." An elite division of the Sabregard, he used intimidation and threats to push his way into power. Now, he rules the Kingdom with an Iron fist. So much so that he's expending his army faster than it can be born and trained...
