Early Years

Rhosiech and his family left the Rhomlands for the capital of Squarome. Rhoston attended the Lyceum of Squarome, where he studied History, warfare, and knowledge of all-purposes. After Rhoston graduated the Lyceum at age of 15 in 470 BSR, Rhoston went to the University of Squarome, founded by Squing Squarous himself. Rhoston graduated in political science and law in 466.

Military Career
Rhoston then went to the Royal Institute of Warfare at Squarome, according to the wishes of his father. His father, Rhosiech was now General of the Army of the Rhomland. Thanks to the influence of General Rhosiech, Rhoston graduated top of his class and was instantly made a Captain of the 2nd Rhomerlin Division. Rhoston was able to see the emerging threat of the unifying Diamondic forces. Rhoston quickkly became a Colonel of the Army of the Rhomland, supported by his father. During that time, Rhoston married in 460, and had three children. He was the father of Rhemius, Rhocarous, and Rhostaric. They were born in 459, 454, and 451, respectively. Fed up with the indifference of his superiors, he decided to set up a new colony of Living Squares, after his father retired in the military in 444 BSR.

Rhoston Colony
In 443, Rhoston arrived in a land known to the natives as Navilight. It was near the southeastern shores of the Lesser Sranian Lake. On the Hills of Rhoseich, Rhoston built his colony, which he named Rhoston and the surrounding regions as Rhostonia. Rhoston had heard this land was fertile and that it was a blessed terrritory from the Great Sage of Wenlos Hall, Wenlonic the Wise. According to Wenlonic, a Great Stone of Light, the Navilyte, was hidden in the lands of Navilight. The Navilyte had the powers to grant longevity to its owners. Rhoston ruled as a ruler of the colony. Many claim he was a Squing, while others say he proclaimed himself Governor-Consul, while others maintain he was elected as Mayor for Life. Rhoston ruled the region until his death in 397 BSR.
