My daughter has helped me get to places that I could have never reached on my own

I'm still figuring things out but basically there are two kingdoms: Royu and Merka. Evan and Jericho are from Royu while Sima is from Merka. Sima and Evan agreed to be in an arranged marriage to bring peace to the two kingdoms.

First, the Royu Kingdom lives at the harbor and in the mountains.

They have trading, imports, fish, ships, mining, stone, metal, diamonds, and so on.

The town is the middle between the harbor and the mountains and growing to reach each endpoints. The people have jobs that pays them and the royal taxes and their houses and buildings are made out of stone. There are also carriages, carts/wagons, and horses for transportation.

Their army has shields, swords and spears and stronger, burlier men and women who more or less worked in the mines or at sea/fishing.

They live more materialistically and there are various shops, bars, and lodges. King and Queen Royu are comfortable in their riches because of their resources and the harbor, especially.

The Merka Kingdom lives deep in the woods away from the ocean and the mountains.

Within the woods, they have access to rivers/streams, waterfalls, and ponds so they have water.

They are more closed off than the other kingdom, their town is well hidden and spread out in small clusters so they turn to farming for food and sustainability with their animals. They use their horses for travelling or go on foot.

Their people are spiritual, in tune with nature, especially herbs for medicine and live in wooden structures. Their jobs are fewer but it contributes to all as a whole. They have mastered wood carving, rope-making and hunting/trapping.

Their troops of leaner, stealthier men and women are skilled in bows and arrows and wooden spears and climbing. But they aren't fighters, they don't resort to violence, initially.

However, the kingdoms are in an emotional war of resentment and weakness over the harbor.
