As Seraphina sought to consolidate her dominion, she systematically eradicated the cultures, traditions, and languages of the conquered civilizations. Books and scrolls were burned, temples and monuments destroyed, and any form of resistance or dissent was brutally suppressed. This cultural erasure served to break the spirit of those she ruled over, leaving them disconnected from their heritage.
While Eldoria's forests appeared more vibrant than ever on the surface, they harbored a darker secret. Seraphina's use of dark magic tainted the land, twisting the once-benevolent flora and fauna into malevolent forms. These corrupted woods became a symbol of her reign, filled with eerie, sentient creatures that enforced her rule through fear and intimidation.
