Sossal

The nation of Sossal was located in the Cold Lands of northeast Faerûn.

Geography
This chilly place was locked between Pelvuria and Yal Tengri.

Government
From its founding in 331 DR to 1319 DR the nation of Sossal was ruled under a system of monarchy. Following the death of its then-leader at that latter date, the nation was ruled by a druid conclave known as the Circle of the Frozen Sun.

Relations
Due to how remote it was, the land of Sossal had very little contact with the rest of Faerûn outside of trade.

History
Circa -2320 DR, a clan of Rashemi migrated north and settled in the alpine valleys of the Armridge Mountains. Overtime their descendants would come to be known as the Sossrim.

In the, the Sossrim living around the Great Glacier were united by Ylaethar "The Bear", who proclaimed himself to be Ornath (king). They went on lead the Sossrim south from their ancestral lands and found the nation of Sossal. At the height of the Raumathar Empire's power, they briefly ruled over land of Sossal.

In the, the land of Sossal was rocked by a series of earthquakes. These tremors caused fissures to open in the nearby Great Glacier and several powerful demons that had been trapped below since the fall of Narfell were unleashed. Under the guidance of then-ruler Londraeth, the kingdom managed to vanquish the rampaging horde.

In the, the monarchy of Sossal collapses as then-leader Thelessar is murdered by his twin sons Norlith and Baldraeth. Both would be banished from Sossal for their transgression by the nation's spiritual leader, the Great Druid Ulthorkh. He and his druid conclave, the Circle of the Frozen Sun, would soon after take over the role of governing the nation.
