Argenople

"The Begotten of Ethalnas; heir of the Empire of the Adopted Gods; bastion of order and defender of the faith. Shining silver city on the banks of the Eragus. Hail to you!" Psalm of the Argenos - Unknown   "The Shining Silver City, shiny as a snake scales- it may lack the dark alleys that hide predators in other cities but they keep the fangs and slithering cruelty. Law here is not a principle upheld on a column, but a weight thrown over your back and carried." Parody of the Argenos - Lilas the Bard

The Argenine Empire stands as the greatest power in Tenembria, a colossus of iron discipline and imperial ambition. Born from the embers of the Arumsfall, it claims to be the true heir of the shattered Old Empire, its rulers forging unity from the chaos of a broken world. Its legions of citizen-soldiers march with unshaken purpose, expanding its borders ever outward, while its great marble cities gleam as testaments to order and civilization. Yet, beneath this grandeur lies a quiet tension—rivalry with the Covenantal Church, simmering unrest in its conquered lands, and an insatiable hunger for the wealth and wonders of distant shores. To the Argenines, theirs is a sacred duty: to restore what was lost, to bring law where none exists, to forge a world unbowed by weakness. But to its foes, the Empire is an unyielding tide, crushing all in its path with the weight of conquest and doctrine. As the Hydrean League rises to challenge its supremacy and the next great Scourge looms on the horizon, the question remains—will the Empire stand eternal, or will it too crumble into legend like the empire before it?
