The Kingdoms and the Void

About one hundred years ago, the Goblin Kingdom was ascendant, the center of culture and power for the other Kingdoms: Human, Elvish, Ogre, and Naga. The Goblin Kingdoms were ruled by a long line of wise Goblin Queens. The forces of the Void Cultists however gained a foothold in the Human kingdom, corrupting the Kingdom and allowing the Void to grow in power. The other Kingdoms, along with about half of the Human Kingdom and led by the High Paladins, formed an alliance under the Treaty of Love, but it was almost too late. The forces of the Void fought the allied Kingdoms, and all of the Kingdoms suffered tragic losses. At last, the Goblin Queen Gabrielle fought with the Void’s Disciple directly using the ancient Crown of the Goblin Queens, sacrificing herself to defeat the Void. Queen Gabrielle was buried in a tomb, along with the crown of the Goblin Queens, at the site of the battle.

Coppercrawlers, a LGQ short story

Rain-soaked trails, mossy ruins, and the kind of companionship you only earn by sharing a pack and a stubborn sense of wonder—Garnet wouldn’t trade her life on the road for anything. Alongside her parents—Gleb, a gruff, brilliant veteran of a hundred expeditions, and Glerich, a calm scholar whose uncanny sketches can capture a lost age in a few quick strokes—Garnet combs the Wildwoods for forgotten Goblin history. They bicker, they banter, they keep their safety rules… mostly. And when they finally uncover a long-buried site that shouldn’t exist, the three must rely on what families do best: trust, teamwork, and the quiet certainty that no one gets left behind. https://www.amazon.com/Last-Goblin-Queen-Coppercrawlers-Kingdoms-ebook/dp/B0GYM4SGVH?ref_=ast_author_mpb

Alchemy

Most of the “magic” of the Kingdoms is rooted in Alchemy. It is a learned discipline and does not require any supernatural agency on the part of its practitioners. Alchemy is divided into three branches, each associated with a distinct alchemical material.

Transformation uses Catalyst and allows one material to be changed into another, sometimes with the potential to revert to its original state. Amalgamation uses the Alchemist’s Flame and enables the combining of unlike materials into a single alloy that retains properties of both. The more advanced the Alchemist, the more abstract the properties they are able to manipulate.
