“ | Sprawling before Sigurd lay the daunting Great Verdane Forest. He was about to set foot into the forest of spirits... | ” | — Opening narration of Chapter 1 |
---|
Verdane (Japanese: ヴェルダン Verdane) is a nation of Jugdral located in the continent's south-western corner, bordered by Agustria to the north and Grannvale to the north-east. Along with Miletos, it is one of two nations of Jugdral to not be founded by any of the Twelve Crusaders.
History
Verdane was founded at some point after the fall of the Loptrian Empire, and as a result of its constant military encroachments on the border of neighboring Grannvale, quickly earned a reputation among Grannvale's people as a "barbarian kingdom" whose residents are entirely comprised of violent savages.[1] This changed with the ascent of Batu to the Verdane throne, who sought to end the aggression of his nation and normalize relations with Grannvale.[2] By Grann 757 he had succeeded in achieving peace and in pacifying his aggressive sons, Cimbaeth and Munnir, but was manipulated by Sandima of the Loptr Church into believing that Grannvale intended to invade Verdane and retaliated by ordering a pre-emptive invasion of Grannvale, now defenseless with its army off to war against Isaach. The Verdane army successfully got as far as claiming Yngvi Castle and abducting its stewardess Edain, but was met with resistance from Sigurd of Chalphy and Quan of Leonster, who led a small force in first repelling the Verdane invasion, then in invading Verdane themselves to rescue Edain. Unable to convince his father to ignore Sandima's twisted advice, Prince Jamke released Edain and allied with Sigurd in fighting Sandima, who slew Batu upon the king's attempts to question Sandima's advice.[3] Following Sandima's downfall, Sigurd was entrusted with the task of governing Verdane on behalf of Grannvale, based in Evans Castle, but later abandoned Verdane when war broke against Agustria.
In the aftermath of the Battle of Belhalla, in which Jamke died, Verdane was left neglected by Grannvale and descended into a state of perpetual warfare between clans of bandits seeking to dominate it.[4] During this time, Deirdre and Sigurd took on a legendary status among the people of Verdane[5], who came to regard Deirdre as a saint.[6] In the aftermath of Grannvale's defeat, Jamke's son waged a year-long war to end the unrest and reunify Verdane, and from there dedicated himself to the country's reconstruction with support from Grannvale and Agustria.[7]
Notable locations in Verdane
Verdane Castle
Verdane Castle is the the capital of Verdane, situated in the north-west corner of the country above the Spirit Forest.
Evans
Evans Castle is located in the north-east of Verdane, near the borders with Agustria and Grannvale. From here, Sigurd governed Verdane following its downfall, having used the castle as the base of operations for his invasion of Verdane.
Genoa
Genoa Castle is situated in the south-eastern corner of Verdane, and was the domain of Prince Cimbaeth. From Genoa, Cimbaeth subjected nearby villages to relentless savage assaults.[8]
Marpha
Marpha Castle is located south of Verdane Castle and the Spirit Forest. It was the domain of Prince Munnir, and was where he imprisoned Edain following her abducting from Yngvi; she and Dew were released from the castle by Jamke.
Spirit Forest
The Spirit Forest is a dense forest directly south of Verdane Castle. Somewhere in its midst lies a village in which the descendants of the exiled Saint Maera lived to avoid persecution for their Loptous descent, until Cigyun of the lineage grew weary of the life and abandoned it to live in Grannvale. At the end of her life she returned to the village and gave birth to her daughter, Deirdre, who lived there before leaving to marry Sigurd.[9]

While I was there, a beautiful girl named Cigyun was living under th' village's custody. That was due t'her bein' th' last remaining descendant of th' Loputo prince. But Cigyun grew tired of th' forest life. She up and left thus breaking village law. She returned several years later expectin' a child. She gave birth to a little girl, but tragically didn't survive. Apparently, the village fortune-teller took after raising the child. I wonder where the child is now...
