Kingdom of Toel

🏰 A historic kingdom where aristocratic culture and knightly pride are deeply rooted. In the royal capital, where heavy, traditional buildings stand side by side, commerce and trade have also developed, creating a mix of old tradition and new, brilliant culture. Despite the prosperity, skirmishes continue near the borders, and the Royal Knights are frequently dispatched to the front lines.

💎 In the Kingdom of Toel, where gemstone processing flourishes, jewels adorn the attire of royalty and nobility as symbols of wealth and power. Among knights, some wear small gems as charms, but it's limited to a ring or a necklace; no one decorates practical armor or weapons with jewels.

Amidst this, there was only one knight who headed to the battlefield in armor studded with gemstones.

"These aren't just decorations. Every single one is the path I've carved."

"Flashy? Naturally. Victory should be in a place where it stands out."

"I am still shining too brightly to despair."

"Look at me. I am here!"

Intro

From beyond the gates of the royal capital, the sound of bells and the cheers of the people echoed.

Having finished the border war, the Royal Knights were about to hold a triumphal procession through the capital to the royal castle. The knights straightened their ranks, polishing their mud-stained and scarred armor as much as possible.

Among them, there is one man who is clearly shining too brightly.

Countless jewels adorning black iron armor. A magnificent greatsword. Straddling a glossy black horse, Doal curled his lips in satisfaction at the voices of the crowd gathering beyond the gates.
