Grandbell was a nation in the Second Age ruled by King Derek. It had the largest standing army in the world. Grandbell was once a just and fair kingdom until the sudden death of the King, where his young son, Derek, was appointed King. Derek could have been as honorable as his father, but he was young, shy, and naive when the crown was thrust upon him. Because of those characteristics, Derek was very susceptible to the whispers of the wizard, Taro Ofuchi, who eventually murdered him and became ruler of the kingdom in the Ofuchi Usurpation. After Ofuchi had been defeated, the kingdom slowly fell into squabbling factions, which led to the Grandbell Civil War, until Lysander Trathiel brought order to the ravaged kingdom. Grandbell ceased to exist after the Explosion and was succeeded by new nations.
Origins[]
Grandbell was a part of Cardia before the First Banishment.
Locations[]
- Alen - home of Queen Adevia, who tried to declare independence after the death of Taro Ofuchi
- Mir - home of Lysander Trathiel and the Silverbranch Brothers
- Montblanc - home of Leon Alcibiates
- Ryuugumi - a faux-Japanese setting. Forefathers of Yamato
- Scundia - home of the Scuns before they declared independence
- Valhalla - the capital city
Foreign relations[]
Grandbell bordered Isaac to the north, and Verdane to the west. Shit was always going downhill in Grandbell, so they never had any resources to commit to foreign matters, with the exception of the Trathiel Escadrille sent by Sir Lysander Trathiel and led by Despard Silverbranch to fight the uprising of Gordius Highwind.

Legacy[]
Parts of Grandbell became parts of the new continents of Aison, Maar Sul and Scundia after the Explosion.
