Tangible Evidence that Coltzan is the Greatest King
While there are many sad tales in the history of Neopia, Coltzan’s story is one of true heartbreak. Even though he was poisoned at a banquet in his own palace (more on that later), Coltzan still brings great comfort and joy to all of Neopia. The great king once said, “I shall cower before no evil, and defend the virtue of my people against all enemies. Regardless of the outcome, at least I know that I have fought for a most noble cause." Now that’s a leader I want to root for. That’s a king I can see myself going to battle for!
While he died many, many years ago, we still remember him daily. Coltzan’s Shrine is a must-see anytime you’re in the Lost Desert! But alas, we’re here to talk about the things we can see, hold close, and treasure - the items that remind us of his reign and power. In this article, we’ll be diving into those, but first, some back story.
Who is Coltzan?
Many years ago, a great king named Coltzan III ruled over the Lost Desert. He was a beloved king, both stern and mighty yet also kind and full of wisdom. He had two loving daughters, Amira and Vyssa, who were both in line for the throne.
Coltzan held a banquet in his palace, celebrating the defeat of Dr. Sloth, and invited multiple politicians to the great feast. Unfortunately, Coltzan was poisoned during the meal and fell to an untimely demise. While the culprit, Princess Sankara, was eventually caught, many citizens of Sakhmet were devastated by the loss. His youngest daughter, Vyssa, built an obelisk right outside the city in memoriam of her father.
While the obelisk, known to us as Coltzan’s Shrine, is one of the primary ways we remember the fallen king, there are a number of other ways to honor him, including many items to collect and share! So without further ado, here it is: tangible evidence that Coltzan will forever and always be the greatest king.
