Doom of the Uproar Myth in Wynsumheord | World Anvil

Doom of the Uproar

The tale of the terrible plights that befell a nation who rose up against their King.

Historical Basis

This tale of treachery and punishment is very old. It was most likely originally concocted to discourage the royal subjects from rising up against their leaders. The anecdote has components of ancient scriptures taken from The Testament of The Shining Lord.

Cultural Reception

Citizens of The Nurvenheath Kingdom, The Syperragg Kingdom, The Eiterland Kingdom, and The Wahstrehite Kingdom have feared and revered this tale for years and years. They have told it to their children. They have referenced it in conversation, and they consider it every time the slightest thought of rebellion crosses their minds. Some don't believe that the legend is true, but there is hardly ever an uproar because the few braves cannot gather enough people to start a successful attack. The majority of the land believes that laying a hand upon the King and putting an end to the royal bloodline means certain death to all.

In Literature

It is recorded in many libraries, upon many scrolls, and within the hearts and minds of several peasants and townsfolk of the kingdoms surrounding Wynsumheord. It has even been developed into puppet theater and stageplays for entertainment and constant reminder of the consequences that shall happen to all who oppose the mighty King .

In Art

Many castles and palaces are adorned with tapestries and paintings of the scenes of plight and terror that befell the villagers in the story.
