King Willark I

Willark Radiz was the second son of a wealthy merchant in Rishton. As a young man, he was dynamic and a good businessman. He didn't want to sit behind a desk and take over the family business, which was fine as the second son. Instead, he liked adventure and would travel with trade delegations and get to know the people of the countries around Eshtorr. He even traveled with trade ships going north to the Druic Islands, where there was some commerce with the Druden.
Over time, he saw that the Druden were getting more and more aggressive. He heard stories of the Druden raiding along the shores of Sangania. As time went on, the raids grew bolder and more frequent and penetrated further into the continent. Willark himself fought the Druden on more than one occasion. As they normally are, the Druden are fearsome warriors, but those that can take on their ynsorb form are devastating. Willark decided that the best way to defeat the Druden was to bring all the countries of Sangania together, stop the continent's internecine skirmishes, and provide a united front. It took several years for this to happen and still more before the Druden were soundly defeated in the area of Arrika that came to be known as the Oberdea Wasteland. Oberdea was the wizard who worked with Willark and who drained the land to power the magics he used to defeat the Druden.
