If you don't mind me playing devil's advocate, when reading the intro I find it a little strange that the kingdom of Terra specializes making armor for it's military because it raises two questions for me. （　ﾟ Дﾟ）／

First of all, if they live in the grasslands, where are they mining the metal needed to forge said armor? Flat land like that isn't normally where you'd find high concentrations of iron and such.

Second, since they live on the open plains wouldn't the greater emphasis be on mobility? Heavy armor is great for turning a blow and all, but it slows you down quite a bit, which is very unhelpful when you've got a lot of open ground to cover.

I would suggest maybe instead that their military is focus more on Calvary since that is the perfect terrain for mounted troops, and perhaps that the nation has a greater emphasis on farming since grassland like that would likely make for very fertile soil.

Hope I didn't end up bombarding you with text here. (^*^) Just trying to offer some tips from my own experience in world building.

yeah I see what you mean I think I shall do a bit of rewriting to fix a few of the kingdoms but I would like to say that just because they make great armor doesn't mean it is heavy, and since magic does exist you can always assume things are a bit different. But i will take your comment into consideration as I rewrite things ... not that many people are jumping to join
