The Siege of Draventh - Tales from the world of Vaelorai

The Last Crown of the East

A Tale of Fire, Stone, and Sovereignty



For forty days, the siege has thundered at the gates of Draventh — the last free city of the East. Above the black cliffs of the Aviedhien Ocean, Queen Lysmira stands defiant, heir to a bloodline that once bound gods. Her people starve. Her armies dwindle. But her will remains unbroken.



Beyond the valley, Emperor Brudahas commands a host a million strong — the greatest army ever forged. Kingdoms have fallen beneath his boots. Rivers have been bent to his will. He comes not to burn Draventh, but to crown it. To finish the world he has conquered.



What unfolds is not merely a siege, but a war of legacies — where surrender is not defeat, and conquest is not victory. Between a tyrant who seeks eternity and a queen who chooses memory, the battle becomes something greater: a reckoning.



When gods no longer answer, when Dust itself becomes a weapon, only one truth remains:

The crown must be taken… or buried with its last bearer.
