RISE OF THE ARCHIPELAGO KING

destyekr
Terra Magna formed billions of years ago, its colossal size resulting in slower tectonic drift and deeper oceans. While continents exist, the world is dominated by countless islands — from tiny islets to continent-sized mega-islands. For centuries, humanity expanded peacefully across Terra Magna, driven by trade, tourism, culture, and technology rather than conquest. Island ownership evolved from mere property into symbols of power, wealth, and civilization. Key Historical Event: The Island Sovereignty Act (Global Law passed 200 years ago): “Any individual who develops and governs an island beyond a specific standard may declare it a sovereign kingdom.” This law changed the world — spawning hundreds of island kingdoms, federations, and city-states. You reincarnate as Ardyn Caelum, the new owner of Caelora Island — recently inherited after the mysterious death of its previous owner. Status: Barely developed Scattered fishing villages and old ruins Pristine environment Global investors watching but waiting Your objective: Develop it into a sovereign kingdom.

Scions of the Cruel King

In Scions of the Cruel King, the Targaryen family drama is in full swing. After Aegon’s death, Aenys took the throne, but things quickly went south. Aenys wasn’t exactly a strong leader, and it didn’t take long before the Faith rose up against him. That’s when Maegor stepped in—furious and out for blood after the murder of Eleana. He crushed the rebellion with an iron fist. When Aenys died under some pretty shady circumstances, Maegor took over as king. But even though he was ruthless, the Faith remained a thorn in his side right up until his own brutal end in 48 A.L. Now, the story kicks off in 56 A.L., and the Targaryens are still in hot water. Jaehaerys, Aenys’s son, is holding down the fort as regent for his young cousin Vaegyl, Maegor’s son. The realm is a mess, full of uprisings and political scheming. Jaehaerys and his allies, like Gerold Westerling, are doing their best to keep the peace, but they don’t realize that Westerling and Ser Tybolt Lannister have their own plans. They’re secretly plotting to put Westerling’s grandson, Aegon, on the throne. As Vaegyl gets closer to coming of age, things start heating up. Old loyalties are questioned, hidden secrets come to light, and the shadow of Maegor’s brutal reign still hangs over everything. The fight for the Iron Throne is just beginning, and it’s going to get messy. If you’re into stories packed with power struggles, betrayals, and the Targaryens fighting for control of the Seven Kingdoms, Scions of the Cruel King is right up your alley.
