Warlords of the WestStanding as one of the strongest entities of the warlord period, the name Katidariga strikes fear in the hearts of its neighbours. Back over hundred years ago, its warlords ruled over a fair share of the Ishyamtumu, performing regular raids down the Kugero into Sitewosi lands and razing the marshes before backing off to their positions on the other side of the river, subjugating Tanizu tribes along the way. \nThis was until the young Tanizu woman named Uwimbabazi joined their ranks. She stunned the warlord with her beauty, and she was taken as his wife after she was captured. Hiding a deep hatred for her newfound family, she began to seduce multiple other warlords, soon becoming de facto Vitaragomo of the warband. \nShe used her power to launch a massive and reckless invasion of the Tanizu, which ended as abruptly as it started in the Battle of Gylizir, ending the Katidariga domination of the Tanizu and forcing them to look eastwards.

KuvunikaThe Unbreakable, The Western Border, The Three Layered Fortress: Kuvunika bears many names, all having the same import. This place stands as a marvel of Dakinshi fortification. \n\nBuilt on the ruins of a fallen lizardfolk spire, it comprises three layers: \nThe outer layer serves as its first line of defence, housing large barracks and some farmlands which provide supplies to defenders, who can thus defend the fortress for long amounts of time. \nThe inner layer serves as the main defensive gate, carved out of the ruin’s dark and heavily resistant material, which no one, even among Dakinshi, has found a way to break. It protects the houses of its inhabitants, along with its markets and other establishments. \nIn the middle of the inner layer rests the last line of defence, the base of the spire, repurposed into a fortress palace of the warlords. Many ancient traps still lie untriggered, waiting for any invader oblivious to its layout. \n\nThis place holds great importance to the lizardfolk communities who prefer to move here, close to the Zatsarya and their influx provides a steady supply of defenders devoted to protect their holy site to their dying breath.

The Poor and The StrongThe reality of a warlord society is ruthless. Competitors are plenty and the resources scarce and centered in few places. Those who are not strong enough find themselves working for the sole benefit of their local warlords, while those who dare try to fight the existing hierarchy, duel their way into the higher position amongst the Munitaragomo to hopefully reach the top of the hierarchy as the Vitaragomo of the warband.\nWhile this means that only competent fighters advance to the top, this also adds to the instability of the region, as warlords incessantly rebel against their former overlords.

Unfiltered MockeryIt isn’t really a secret that warlords largely despise each other. The net of personal grudges between the Vitaragomo has been dense for years with few ends unconnected, effectively stymying any attempt at diplomacy that is not a simple demand for capitulation. \nSo far goes this devotion to not liking each other that some animosities are now built artificially, by a peculiar custom that emerged something over hundred years ago. \n\nThe lesser warlords sit down with the Vitaragomo near a large table. Some of them see paper for the first time in their lives, as they hear the name of the warlord that is the topic of the meeting. For the following six hours, the meeting will proceed as its members write out a series of convoluted and obscene insults towards a certain warlord; this is then sent to the victim, who upon delivery must read it aloud to the laughter of his subjects, risking great shame if he doesn’t.

Freshly Made Beans and WeaponsThe demand for iron for weapons and luxuries for the rich never runs out. \nDespite the poor state of the economy and the dangers that the region’s trade routes bear, there are still traders brave and insane enough to traverse the lands of Bamaliwuni, looking to secure its riches and carry them to the port cities. The upside is worth it though, as those who manage to make the trip find themselves richer than most Dakinshi, able to afford a lavish lifestyle for the rest of their lives just with a few ventures.

War DruidsPreviously serving as the spiritual leaders of the Dakinshi society, the druids of the Beast Memory serve as the reminders of once broken link between humans and animals. Brought up from those magically gifted across the land, they organize themselves at the natural meeting points of animal herds, protecting these vital positions against any interference that would disrupt the natural order. \n\nWhile typically peaceful in their behavior, the times of strife have proven dangerous enough to change some of the druids' stance to a more offensive one, joining the many warlords of the land in a proactive effort to keep out everyone who does not care about the environment.

Dreams of a Reborn EmpireAcross the land, there is a common impetus driving every warlord’s mind. A desire to win, to squash one’s opponents under their feet, best them in battle, lay upon their corpses and dance on their graves. The dream of an empire that toppled not so long ago as to be forgotten, but long enough to be romanticised through second-hand nostalgia. The ambition to become something bigger, to be remembered, to be unlike the others. To make oneself known, feared, respected and acknowledged as the single, true unifier to the empire they forged with blood, sweat and tears. This will be the ultimate price of the new Bwa Dakinshi.
