Background[]
Valithea is a country in the Alton Region and roughly the size as Austria. It borders Eltmur and fought a losing war against their aggressive neighbor which only ended when the Silver King intervened.
Prior to the military invasion, Eltmur used all manner of poisoning, assassination, and espionage to weaken Valithea. When the capital city was besieged, Pandion Corbeau, Captain of the Raven Knights - Valithea's royal guard, led a holding action to allow the populace to evacuate. Despite the Raven Knights' heroic sacrifice, the capital was occupied and nearly razed before the Silver King met with the Eltmur leadership and stopped the invasion. According to Remy, the Silver King was "halfway home" after this initial intervention when, for unknown reasons, he returned and slaughtered the Eltmer leadership and took control of both countries.
Valithea has since been returned to independence and self-rule.
