Azurien

Geography 

History

Once there was another state called Azurien, where the first settlers found the giant statue of Azura. Unfortunately a cataclysmic event, probably caused by a devastating eruption of the volcano, happened and it was destroyed. Few Azuriens could escape, but found themselves soon caught into slavery. It took nearly five decades until the rebellion happened. Azuriens were finally free again, and founded their new Azurien.

Goverment

The free people of Azurien elect a council of wise men and woman that rule for a minimal period of 3 years. The council has its place in Tel Aldnium in the Hall of the People. Every member is elected individually and everyone is part of the council until new candidates are up for their seat. The high priest has also one seat at the council, he has no vote, but is a counselor. Economy

Religion

The refugees from the old Azurien brought their believes with them, and the Azurian faith is official state religion. The statue of Azura was built soon after the revolution. Written down, at the walls of Dusk, Night and Dawn, is Azura's Mantra:

"Here in her Shrine That once was forgotten Here do we pray That we might remember

By Night we reclaim What by Day was stolen Far from ourselves She grows even near to us Our Minds once were blinded Now through her do we see Our hands once were idle Now through them does she speak

And when the world shall listen And when the world shall see And when the world remembers That world shall cease to be"
