A place to begin
Ordel is one of the Eleven kingdoms of Blood of the First. Its name belongs both to the kingdom and to its home city. The story opens here, among worked fields, river villages, and roads that people depend on.
Royal life exists alongside the practical work of keeping communities supplied and connected. The river is part of that daily life: a means of passage, a source of work, and a force that demands attention.
The Threefold Gate
Ordel’s heraldic device brings three related bands into a tall arch above flowing water. Its blue and muted-gold design places crossings and connection at the center of the kingdom’s visual identity.
