The Archbishopric of Ausfenz

History
Much of Ausfenz's history is tide up with the history of history as you will see. The version of history given here is as close to the truth as I can find but it is hotly contested by Awegonian forces who argue that Aruseus was the first to bring civilization to the world. Despite this it is becoming increasingly evident that Ausfenz had civilization before 0 PA.

The Asvalo Warriors and Kingdom
When the Elementals first created humanity they formed the humans into tribes for company. Most tribes achived very little and the ones that did were soon defeated by another tribe and the land left in chaos or destroyed by external powers nervous of a new power or fell into chaos when they expanded beyond two levels of command. One such tribe were the militaristic and ritualistic Asvalo Fern Warriors.

The Asvalo Fern Warriors quickly became involved in conflicts with the neighboring tribes and quickly set about destroying The Blue Peak Caste. After that they used their expanded territory to gain even more power and with it territory. The Swift Eagle Tribe was forced to join and The Angry Spears eventually followed. Shortly afterwards the mysterious Shadow Sword Warriors also signed up and are speculated to have started running the tribe from backstage. Ever way they soon saw their first major struggle against The Molten Rage Brethren who fought them in a bitter struggle that lasted a whole week before fleeing into the mountains.

The area was quickly renamed The Asvalo Kingdom and the fledgling kingdom quickly expanded into new found lands. First it dominated the valley, then the ajoining valleys, then the whole region called Ausfenz and more from The First Valley to WintersHalt. Then they met Aruseus's forces and in a brief but bitter battle were subjugated into his fold allowing him to jump from being too insignificant for rivals to bother with to too big. In many ways Aruseus hijacked The Asvalo Fern Kingdom as part of a crown until he could make it part of his empire but quickly the citizen's of Asvalo were merged into Aruseus's land. The last few reforms came after Aruseus's death as a response to the threat of being invaded from the north or the south but it didn't matter: Asvalo was part of Aruseus's land.

The Rebirth as Part of Aruseus's Land
With the dissolution of the Arusian military into its cavalry, soldiers and elites Aruseus's land had to find new special forces to fill the void.
