Original The Ymaryn: Succession

The Ymaryn are a nation older than reckoning, drawing on a tradition of continuous peaceful transfer of power from before the dawn of recorded history. The Premier power of the fictional (and geographically altered) Near East, this Kingdom has recently been laid low by the ravaging of the Great Khan. As they lay bleeding, desperately trying to live, the Kingdom faces an uncertain future. Dissolution and destruction are more likely than succession and survival, if those are even possible at all.

This is inspired as the 3rd iteration of a Quest initially started by AcademiaNut (Path of Nations) and picked up again by Aranfan (Ymaryn Successor Quest). Thank you to both of them for inspiration.
