Setting
Heliosfa may be the biggest kingdom but it is the least inhabited. There are only two small tribes that roam the lands and one permanent town, the main research facility. The town actually holds what is believed to be the best school for higher learning, in all the lands. The nomadic tribes make, trade, and live off of weapons. As they move they make weapons in movable carts that use a form of archaic spell to levitate. They then move to the border to trade with caravans who dare not go far into the wasteland that is their home.
Heliosfa only sent a meager 100 men to the Golden Army. However these are probably the most useful men in the army. It also left almost no men in Heliosfa to defend their trade networks. That doesn't matter much though because the demand went up ten fold when the war started, despite the lack of supply.
