Weekly Country Spotlight: Lyrouche

Here, I have work I have previously posted on Serenes Forest, but it may be new to some readers. There will be a few Weekly Country Spotlights that will be similar or identical to the Serenes Forest content I posted, but there are a few countries I have not written about, and I will toss them into the mix as well. The first country I will be writing on is "the good guys" country, Lyrouche.
Lyrouche is a monarchy, the current king is Lord Firos, who's daughter, Syllish, was to inherit the throne when she turned twenty, but at twelve she was put in a coma from the Empirion incident. The Empirion is the country's national treasure, a powerful crystal housed inside the castle and guarded by the royal sage.
The culture in Lyrouche is simple, but they do hold a prejudice against shifters, because Lyrouche is not the native home of any type of shifter (laguz). Most shifters avoid government when they can, so anarchies and free regions like Tryst are preferred in comparison to more strict, government focused countries, such as Lyrouche.
The country largely believes in Ancia, the goddess of control and light. Lyrouche isn't focused on religion, but again, most do believe in the goddess, and those who worship Larces are usually ignored, treated poorly, or in some serious cases, imprisoned.
Lyrouche has a bit of a god complex, as it has the most power and believes itself to be the most morally sound, as well as the best generally, of the Seinaran governments, making negotiations with Lyrouche painful and long, as they demand too much and return too little simply because they believe they are superior to the other countries. This is why they don't really have allies, they have countries who deal with them, like Riese, Kestra, and Shurca, and countries that fight back or pick fights themselves, like Nykos and Nicholas.
Royal knights of Lyrouche are considered the best in the continent, and because there is an abundance of troops due to common patriotism (or you could say egotism) and a rather large population, soldiers are occasionally rejected for not fitting the mold. The current captain of the royal guard, Gill, maintains strict control over these men and women, and demands only their best for the royal family.
Hawkinson is a village near the capital that is small, humble, and most noteworthy, the home of Taren, Tenn, Tyken, and Annika. It tends to attract those who are lost or wandering, and it's homely and plain appearance also makes it a prime bandit target. Unfortunately, Hawkinson villagers must fend for themselves, as the capital doesn't really care what happens to poorer communities like Hawkinson, as they don't make the capital much money.
