<blockquote>''The Kingdom has now withered and died. The idea was very, very good. A game of thrones inspired accumulation of the entire Graal Military Community would have seemed like a crazy idea to me if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes. It actually happened. The entire community was involved in the system. However, there were significant issues. For one, all the houses aside from House Regium were very weak, and there weren't nearly enough officers to support the large scale of the system. It had it’s moments, sure, one being the Crawford revolt after Vulnus was crowned the King. Crawford rebelled, and all the other houses rallied behind House Regium and destroyed them. A twelve hour battle was ended in 25 minutes, with Crawford agreeing to return to the system, and being given the territory of Deadwood. As much as I wanted it to, this system was never going to work. There are a few big factors to this. Auel created his house with the expectation that he would win the King election. After the election, not wanting to manage his house as opposed to be the King, he went inactive. As mentioned before, the guilds were weak and short-staffed.

When their plans were put into effect, the Kingdom unified every military guild in existence into one common cause. There were numerous great houses, each led by their respective family. Subservient houses flocked under the great houses, which typically had guilds starting with "Knights of." All houses had claims to land, as well as the right to compete for territories against other houses.

Initially, the Kingdom system had no chosen leader, until elections for a High King were hosted and coordinated by Roanoke Han, also known as Xiaoguard. Unbeknownst to Auel Vist, Vulnus won the elections and was crowned High King. Opposed to being the King, Auel went inactive, and with him, [[Vist|House Vist]] fell dormant.
House Crawford would later secede from the Kingdom system and incite the Crawford Rebellion, challenging The Royal Army (the
In due time, Auel Vulnus stepped down and abdicated the throne to Auel Vist. This action did not sit well with the other houses and caused major unrest, eventually leading to the demise of the Kingdom.
