Caleah

Caleah is a kingdom located in the center of Dacaea. It shares its eastern border with Akkar, and the north and west is bordered by the coastline of the Rithian Sea. Its capitol is the city of Inhyrst, located near the center of the kingdom. It includes many islands in the surrounding sea as well, most notably Hythe Island. Caleah is the seat of the largest and most powerful empire in Dacaea. The majority of the world was conquered by Caleah in the year 351, under the command of King Wulfhelm.

History
Caleah was first settled by humans in the year 0, who formed tribes and spread across the land. The border with Akkar was naturally created, as the plains turned to desert east of Lake Habrycg. Within the next hundred years, the major tribes grew into sizable towns and cities. However, Caleah did not have a centralized government and thus each settlement was self-sustaining. Territorial disputes were commonplace, and many trade routes could not be used due to the threat of highway robbery.

In the year 337, a High Court Judge for the city of Inhyrst named Eadald Wulfhelm challenged King Argwin to a duel. Wulfhelm appealed to the king's court, accusing the king of misusing city funds and military incompetency. Argwin ordered Wulfhelm to be apprehended and killed, but his guard did not move. Wulfhelm was wise and well-liked in the court, and many had been growing increasingly dissatisfied with the king's tyrannical leadership. When the court remained still, Argwin realized he had no choice but to accept the terms of the duel. It was set for the following week, in the castle courtyard.

At dawn on the 3rd of Solath, King Argwin met Judge Eadald Wulfhelm in the courtyard of Feorhyrst Castle.
