Island Sovereignty Laws: The Road to Kingship
The sun rose over the fast-developing skyline of Virelith — towers shimmering, ports bustling, and energy pylons glowing with life.
But Ardyn's mind was elsewhere.
He stood before his System Interface — reviewing something even more important than technology or infrastructure.
Island Sovereignty Laws.

"This," Ardyn began, "is no longer just about building a city. We are crafting a nation that must stand alongside Terra Magna's greatest."

He would invite settlers from across the world — offering:

Ardyn smiled at this.
He summoned the Cultural Development Interface.
Options Appeared:
Design National Flag

This nation would not be built by him alone — but by all who called it home.

The Road Ahead
As night fell, Ardyn gazed across the illuminated expanse of Virelith.
It was beautiful — but incomplete.
The real challenge had just begun.
He whispered to himself:
"Caelora will rise — not just as a kingdom… but as a legend."
