Puppet Nation Jistav

Puppet Nation Jistav is the country formerly under Demon Lord Clayman's control and part of his territory. When Clayman was killed, it was then delegated to Milim as one of her new dominions.

History
In the distant past, the Ultra-Sorcery Kingdom of the elves was once prosperous, but it called upon its own destruction by its own stupidity. The nation angered a young girl who would come to be a demon lord — Milim Nava, the daughter of True Dragon Veldanava. As a result, the kingdom was wiped out from the face of the earth overnight.

The rubble left in its wake was known as the ancient ruin ‘Soma.’ Elves that managed to survive swore to restore the glory that Soma once held, yet they failed in their conquest. The depraved monster that they themselves created—the Chaos Dragon—wielded power beyond belief and drove these people away from their hometown. The power held by the Chaos Dragon was the equivalent of Catastrophe-class. Although it was not as strong as a True Dragon, it still wasn’t something the elves could tackle.

The elven survivors went on to spread across the land and walked down different paths. Struck by the sudden misfortune, the elven people, ignorant of the event that took place, sought refuge from their elven ancestors. Those with power explored and settled in the wilderness before building new kingdoms. Some escaped in secret, became reclusive, and lived away from civilizations.

Because of the sins of a few individuals, the golden age of elves came to an end. Some were cursed for their sins and became dark elves. In order to escape from Milim’s fury, they went afar to explore a new land.

Demon Lord Kazaream was one of them. He managed to survive after witnessing the true power of Demon Lord Milim and was among the few remaining members of the elven royal family. Kazaream was not a Demon Lord then. He escaped to this distant land and tried to rebuild a nation in the image of his hometown. He managed to preserve all the elven technology, so it hadn’t been lost, and thus he proceeded to recreating physical copies. The nation that was born as a result was the capital Amrita of the Puppet Nation Jistav.

A few hundred years ago, Kazaream challenged the self-proclaimed Demon Lord Leon Cromwell and was defeated. Clayman took over the territory since then and ruled it until his death.

Clayman's Castle
The Castle that acted as Clayman's primary base and residence, originally belonged to Kazaream when he was the ruler of Jistav. Upon his physical death in Leon's hands, Clayman soon took over the castle in his stead.

The Castle itself acted as Clayman's primary power base where he plotted out his operations and held meetings with his associates, including the members of the Moderate Harlequin Alliance and other Demon Lords. It was well protected by Legions of Undead created by Adalman, The Index Finger of Clayman's Five Fingers, who was cursed by Kazaream to act as the guardian.

The interior of the castle is described as extravagant, decorated with many expensive arts and furniture. After Clayman's downfall, the castle is being managed by dark elves.

Ruins of Amrita
Underneath Clayman's Castle lies the ruins of Amrita, accessible via an enchanted giant gate that only Clayman could open previously. The true identity of the ancient ruins is the magic defense mechanism for the city setup by Kazaream. Unlike the city on the surface protected by Adalman, Amrita was mainly guarded by Kazaream’s spells and his numerous golems.

The ruins is divided into 3 levels.

Death Valley
A path winding through jagged mountains. It was a rough, unfastened road that travel between Clayman’s territory and the Eastern Empire. Despite this treacherous road being laden with monsters, traces of Clayman’s subordinates using the road had been found. Kumara's homeland -- the “Cryptid County" was also located here.
