Valusia

Valusia

Valusia es un reino ficticio creado por el escritor Robert E. Howard para las historias de la "Era Thuria" que giran en torno al atlante Kull de Atlantis.

Según el propio Kull en el relato El reino de las sombras, Valusia es uno de los más antiguos reinos de Thuria, pues las montañas de Mu y Atlantis era islas casi cubiertas por el mar cuando Valusia ya era antigua. Valusia fue fundada por una raza de hombres-serpientes que fueron derrocados por sus esclavos humanos. Decididos a retomar el poder esperaron a que los humanos olvidaran su origen y se disfrazaron de humanos mediante la magia. Crearon una religión que rinde culto a la serpiente. Kull, un bárbaro de las islas de Atlantis, se convierte en rey de Valusia y logra evitar que los hombres-serpiente tomen el poder de nuevo ayudado por el picto Brule.[1]
