Editing Yolden (section)

== History ==
According to [[Teriarch]], Yolden is located in the former domain of Gravity Dragons.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/03/01/9-38-tv-pt-1/ Chapter 9.38 TV (Pt. 1)]</ref>

Yolden did not suffer sieges during the Antinium Wars, as the Black Tide attacked Luldem instead.

The [[Liscorian Army]] would commission gear from Yolden when they were in the area. They've never been hired to fight them, as there's no profit in doing so.

Yolden has lost several wars against Drisshia and its allies, even when joining forces with Naughtl and Fillen, though they've never passed the Big Wall. Yolden has had to pay  tribute to them, mainly in the form of sheep. When a road past the [[Bloodfields]] opened up, Yolden debated sending a delegation to [[Liscor]], but Hectval sent one first.

During the [[Liscor-Hectval War]], a delegation of 19 Drakes approached Liscor's camp to make an offer of alliance against the Hectval-Luldem-Drisshia Alliance, to fight back against their bullying and hoping to get control of some of Drisshia's mines. [[Olesm Swifttail|Olesm]] grilled them to make sure they would pledge adequate forces and not just use them, then accepted.

Two thousand Yoldenite soldiers entered the war. During their initial entry, they were unprepared for the intensity of the fighting, suffering casualties to a volley from Hectval and Luldem forces refusing to surrender. They also would use the war as opportunity to obtain better gear from the enemy.

When the Alliance retreated, Olesm intended to honor the agreement with Yolden to secure them a mine, and have the new army patrol the area to prevent Drisshia from taking it back.<ref name=":0" />
