Empire

An empire can grow quickly from the smallest villages, and that's the grand Empire grew out of. A small village that focused on farming grew as trading began to be an important source. The Empire was surrounded by large mountains except for a break in the circle of mountains, a small valley that extended out of the grand valley the small village lived in. The fertile ground of the valley made it the perfect farming. The massive about of crops and the easy exit out of the valley made it the perfect place to grow an empire out of a village. The village slowly grew into a town, which only continued to grow. The mountains around the the valley were full of rare minerals and jewels in deep caverns. This new industry of mining made the town boom into a powerful growing Empire.
The Empire became a true kingdom of might, with a booming population. As the Empire was growing, it drew knights around from around the lands, growing an army into the Empire. With this powerful army at its hand, it started to conquer the land outside of the mountains, slowly becoming into a true booming empire. Now with the Empire at it's booming peak, it looks to conquer every other kingdom left.
The imperialistic nature of the empire has led it into a bitter war with a rivaling kingdom that has started its own boom of power. Now with the two kingdom locked in a bitter clash, the Empire has found what may be the key to winning the war. The lost princess of the Elves lays hidden in a small village, both kingdoms now wanting her hidden potential for their own.
