The Astingi represent one of the most illustrious royal races among the Vandals, an ancient lineage that once ruled along the shores of the northern ocean. From this distinguished bloodline came kings who would eventually rule over the Sarmatians, carrying their royal heritage across vast distances and through changing fortunes.

Description
