The once-mighty Calradic Empire is in a state of decline. Warlike tribes have seized swaths of its territory. Client kingdoms have declared their independence. The Emperor has died without leaving an heir, leaving three jealous factions to scramble for power. Mercenary companies, bandit lords and nomads hover on the sidelines like vultures waiting for a meal.
Probably, the Battanian Kingdom is one of that client kingdoms who have declared independence. And the Khuzait are just one nomad tribe.
OR
Those two are just common towns and we are going to far with this discussion, haha!
