Heavenly Kingdom: The Kingdom among the clouds

Chapter 146: The Heroes

[Orboume Kingdom]

Orboume Kingdom, according to various kings and evaluators, Orboume kingdom is only second to Amid empire in terms of military strength. This is due to the fact that both country focuses in different kind of strength in the branch of the military.

Amid empire has the history of warriors and conqueror's in the realm of their royal bloodline. About 400 years in the past there were about 10 small countries in the central continent, each and every one of them held their own culture and beliefs in their own land. But the moment the drought and famine came, for some unknown reason  one of them showed much hostility against the other countries in hopes of reaching salvation.

There was no alliance during those times with each country, there were only a country serving for itself, due to that there were no international bond that would make another country help the country who is in a dire situation. After all back then asking for help is also a sign of showing subordination and weakness against another country. Due to that war spreads out and ravaged the whole central continent

The moment two kingdoms finally fell, the remaining country's then begun to forged bonds and alliance with each other in order to contend against such threat who wanted to engulf the whole continent under their rule. With that four alliance were formed with each group consisting of 1 to 2 country. Back then Amid empire was just a small kingdom, but despite being a small kingdom there were brave and strong enough to call themselves alone as an alliance in of itself.

Since there was a bigger threat, no countries even bothered to take much notice in the weirdness of the Amid kingdom and instead allowed every help they could get in order to defeat the enemy. While the amid kingdom is proficient in land battle, the pier alliance in the past who governed the navy then dominated the battle in the sea and slowly push back the enemy. But despite all that the enemy stood fierce and fought back.

In the end four countries were left intact in the battle against the opposing countries, which left a huge plot of land with no owner and people with no leaders. At that point the three new countries were born due to the alliance formed between countries from those that died in the war. In that time Celeste Kingdom, Estia Kingdom, and Orboume Kingdom was formed. Since Amid kingdom was the only original kingdom that was left after that war, it then changed itself into an empire after taking in a huge part of the land left behind by the war.

While Amid empire was left in taking in the military side, Celeste kingdom focused in recovering the lost culture, Estia kingdom focused in politics and economy, and Orboume kingdom which was once a group of people who governs the piers then took charge of the navy itself. Since Orboume Kingdom holds the navy, they naturally have the second strongest military in comparison to Amid Empire.

Upon arriving at the Orboume Kingdom from the teleportation tower, one could really say that as if they had actually gone to another new country due to the fact that the way they dress and culture is way different from the other countries in the central continent. While Estia kingdom and Celeste kingdom follow the culture of the medieval era, Amid empire following the culture similar to the early Babylonians, Orboume Kingdom on the other hand follow the culture of people who live by the sea itself and almost a mix of medieval and Caribbean culture.

The main capital of the Orboume Kingdom is located by the sea itself with the whole city encompassing the whole shoreline form one flatland to a mountain top. It's people were amicable and generous, as they all roam about in the street filled with colorful designs which exudes a light atmosphere filled with happiness. If such place were to compare to the other countries, then the three countries are too dull in comparison to this lively atmosphere which seemed like a festival.

This time however due to the appearance of an international guest, a huge crowd formed around the exit point of the teleportation tower, as the people of Orboume kingdom were curious about the appearance of a foreign person.
