Editing Demon Kingdom

The '''Demon Kingdom''' is a nation inhabited by demons and ruled by the [[Demon King]].

== Overview ==
It is, like the [[Blighted Kingdom]], located in [[Rhir]], and has for thousands of years been at war with the other kingdoms of the continent, of which only one still remains.

== History ==
They've been isolated from the rest of the world, as the Blighted Kingdom has been assassinating their diplomats and those who lend them their ears for a long time. As such, they have no allies, few willing to deal with them as people, and almost every nation in the world gives aid to the Blighted Kingdom instead.

Serinpotva once negotiated with a species of giant spellcasting Silverfish to join the Demon Kingdom. They were wiped out by a plague spell from the Blighted Kingdom, and Silvenia created the Vorepillars and unleashed them on the Blighted Kingdom in retaliation.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/04/01/interlude-stories/ Interlude - Stories]</ref>

Over a hundred years ago, the Demon Kingdom was accused of destroying the [[Half-Elves|half-Elf]] village of Arruif Yal.<ref name=":2">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/12/04/9-27-rc/ Chapter 9.27 RC]</ref> This sparked a great clash between the [[Deathless]] and a great coalition army supporting Archmages [[Az’kerash|Chandler]] and [[Zelkyr Amerwing|Zelkyr]]. The Deathless successfully broke the army and pushed back the Blighted Kingdom, but at the cost of losing two of their members and the other three being so gravely wounded as to put them out of commission for centuries.
== Military Strength ==
The main combatants of the Demon Kingdom are the [[Deathless]] who until recently had been inactive due to massive injuries. What is known is the fact that they are all extremely high-level with one 80+.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/10/25/7-55-e/ Chapter 7.55 E]</ref>

* ''Death of Magic'' - [[Silvenia]], [[Half-Elves|Half-Elf]] from [[Terandria]]
* ''Death of Wings'' - [[Serinpotva]], [[Harpy]] from [[Izril]]
* ''Death of Chains'' - [[Czautha’qshe]], [[Djinni]] from [[Chandrar]]
* ''Death of Voices'' (''Deceased'')
* ''Death of Dust'' (''Deceased'')

The Demon Kingdom also uses other powerful demons known as [[Fearless]]. As the name implies, they are incapable of feeling fear.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/05/05/1-05-c/ Chapter 1.05C]</ref> They reserve these elites for big pushes.<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/07/12/7-34-c/ Chapter 7.34 C]</ref>

The Demon Kingdom is thus far the only known place that freed [[Djinni]] can exist, and it is where they travel to if any manage to escape Chandrar.

Other forces among the Demon Kingdom include the last known full [[Giants]] on Innworld,<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/07/15/7-35-c/ Chapter 7.35 C]</ref> their smaller Demon Giant children, and an [[Flora|Earther]] that uses firearms. They use their Demon Giants sparingly, mainly employing them as archers or scouts.<ref name=":0" />

== Trivia ==

* It is unknown how much of the Demon Kingdom's atrocities are propaganda. The Blighted King did blame a world-wide bout of miscarriages which led to Earthers being brought to Innworld on the Demon Kingdom even though it was in fact the Blighted King himself that held the ritual.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/01/10/8-00/ Chapter 8.00]</ref><ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/12/23/solstice-pt-4/ Solstice Pt. 4]</ref> The destruction of Arruif Yal may also have been a false-flag perpetrated by the Blighted Kingdom.<ref name=":2" />
