Alabasta

Sarutobi Era

An Introduction to the Land of Albasta

Alabasta is a medieval land where many fantastic things take place. The land itself is ruled by the Good King Jayden, a dwarf who lives in the Dwarven Mountains. But, as you will find out in the book, there has been a mass genocide of all Dwarven people. Few dwarves are left, but their legacies are not forgotten, as we retell several dwarven tales during the reign of King Jayden in this story. The dwarves in question were slain by a mysterious samurai named Sarutobi, Sarutobi along with his army of Mordovaes and several highly-skilled mercenaries, are taking over the land of Alabasta like wildfire. The book starts around the time when the last standing Dwarven mountain (Khuskan) is destroyed by the Mordovaes. Once word gets out that Jayden's empire has fallen, chaos breaks out across the land. It is everyone for themselves. But enough about that. There are many types of inhabitants in this world: The Dwarves; a small humanoid breed, more than capable of doing physical labor in forges and mines. The Elves and Dark Elves, a humanoid race that are taller (on average) who live in woods and live a luxurious lifestyle. Goblins are like deformed humans, they are slumped on the back and usually help themselves move with their arms. They live in mountains and underground, waging war against the dwarves for years. However, the Dwarven King Jayden struck a truce with them, so the fighting ceased. A Demon is a living being who has escaped purgatory. They come in all shapes, sizes and races, but they are all branded as the same race: Demons. The undead are like zombies; those who should be dead, but aren't. They are slow creatures that are very rare but can be found in the southeast of the kingdom, near the Sand Pits of Doom. The reason why there are so many zombies around this area is unknown, but that area of the kingdom has been uninhabited for centuries. Khajits are cat/human hybrids. They are usually very wise and have incredible sense like hearing, scent and vision. Sadly, Khajits are a work of nature and cannot be found or made naturally in this world, making them quite hard to find. Argonians are reptile-like humans with a tail and strong scales. They are on top of the food chart in this kingdom, they are ruthless fighters, determined and willing to stop at nothing to achieve victory. they are very stubborn though, and always want to be the alpha of their group, if that analogy is appropriate. Argonians could also contract diseases extremely easily. Taurens are the guards of the dwarves. They have worked together for centuries to protect the royal line of Dwarves that have governed the kingdom for years. They are naturally strong, bull-like humanoids who are very easily angered and are quite commonly viewed as loyal and willing to do anything for their close ones. Finally, there are also humans. Some humans use their talents to do good, such as wizards and mages. But there are plenty of bad humans as well, as the human species takes up well over half of the crimes in this kingdom. So, without further ado, welcome...To the land of Alabasta...

"Sarutobi doomed us all. The Great Red Samurai from the deadly hills of Barandor doomed us all. Not a soul knows who he really is, or where he REALLY comes from. Yet, he just appeared, almost out of thin air. Settled down in the dry, dark prairies known today as "The Death Valley of Takras." Takras.....such a dark, evil, malevolent place. Just thinking about it is enough to drive a man mad at the sight of such a thing. No one has ever tried to stop his force, they just seem to let him take parts of their country. Nowadays the whole world seems to hang around the palace of Faran Dhur, the biggest, most protected city in all of Alabasta. The stories tell of a great powerful wizard, standing at the side of Sarutobi, who is capable of creating a huge protective aura around all of Takras, making it impenetrable..." Yelled out the old crazy man.

"That crazy old man is back at it again." A nearby soldier said as he filled a wooden chug with mead.

"If he doesn't shut his trap we'll have to take care of him for the night." Said the other soldier looking at his friend "If you know what I mean."
