Principles & Philosophy

  • Aligned with The Light.
  • Wishes to continue the partnership between Isparians and the few remaining Yalain.
  • Wishes to harness the power of the Ley Lines to:
    • Defend against The Nameless and the forces of Shadow.
    • Defend Dereth, making it a secure and peaceful place.
    • Free the Yalain from portal space.
  • Not in direct support of Asheron, but shares many values.
  • Not allied with Elysa Strathelar or New Aluvia, but not opposed to them either.

Criticisms

  • Seen as too "good" by some or lacking depth.
  • Conspiracy theories involving a much more pro-Yalain agenda than laid out in the Principles of the Celestial Hand, including the return of the Yalain and subsequent enslavement or eradication of the Isparian population.
