The Golden CityThe place where the Kazira leaves the mainland and empties into the greater seas of Halann, Kaziradoka has long been the end point of the Bamaliwuni metals trade, offering outstanding amounts of gold, silver, bronze and iron to traders from across Sarhal and Haless through its state-enforced monopoly over the goods. \n\nWhile now this is no longer the case and many mines have run dry, the habits of many traders haven’t changed, as it still stands proud, one of the safest and most preserved cities of the region. Its unique Djinnakah period architecture shines over the city, filling them with pride and motivation to bring back the old times.

The Bakatwa DestroyersA Bakatwa is a type of sword meticulously designed to deal excruciating pain to anyone struck by its scarred blade. While extremely effective, it is also incredibly hard to wield without hurting oneself, as an inexperienced user can hurt himself as easily as his opponent.\n\nThe invention of the Bakatwa is assigned to the first warlord of Kaziradoka - Gulimbanzi Imanzi, who came up with the weapon to compliment her precise swordsmanship and became the first mistress of the blade. The few people who wield the blade now are feared as elite troops in all of Bamaliwuni, selected from the most loyal of Kaziradokan lesser warlords and infamous for ripping and tearing through the frontlines of battle-hardened Dakinshi warriors.

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.
