ELUHIERAN RESTORATION

10th of  The Deep Cold, Year 66 of The Second Age

The iconic Uhieran Scout Club shall be returning to Haelun’or, by the head of Elarhil Sullas, we will provide apt guidance to Haelun’orian oem’iian.

History

Eluhieran is a historic institution, dating back to 1719, it seeks to educate and enlighten Mali’aheral youth through practical and theoretical methods. It was founded by Azorella Elibar’acal to give belonging and structure to Mali’aheral youth. After the youth of the time grew into fine Mali’thill, there was a period where little Haelun’orian children were born and with not the numbers to support it, the group dispersed. In 1749, Eluhieran was once again revived by Althaia Elibar’acal, with some differences but still the same core purpose. This will be it’s third iteration.

Why join?

The Mali’aheral age of maturity is much later than most, as such there are very few opportunities that the underage Mali of Elcihi’thilln may take advantage of. The Uhieran distorts this fact by encouraging the youth to step out of their comfort zones and leap into all the realm has to offer. With time and dedication, those enrolled in the Uhieran are able to grow from unmolded children to polished and shined individuals, ready to prosper in the vast climate that is Haelun’or.

Opportunities aside, the Uhieran provides a place of unity, and some may say family, for those who otherwise lack such. The scouts proudly open their clubhouse doors to any willing Mali’aheral child. 

Uhieran Scout Haeluns/Malns

Mali’aheral over the age of 50 are able to participate as a scout haelun/maln if:

[ oem ] They are the parent and/or state assigned guardian of a Uhieran OR

Uhieran Scout Leaders

A small number of Uhieran Scout Leaders can exist at a time, a couple years from the publishing of this missive (66 SA - 68 SA) you may seek out the institution's head if you have interest in becoming a leader, before Eluhieran fully begins running.

There's a list of questions you have to ask:  

    - Name     

   - Race        

- Current place of residence        

- Reason to visit Elcihi        

- If they are somehow related with azdrazi, paladins etc 

If nothing is suspicious:  

       - Bob has to take off his helmet/hood or anything of that sort to reveal his head and face      

   - If they have any weapons tell them to put it in the chest below you. ((only irply))   

       Open the inner gate and don't forget to shut it behind them.

 This protocol must be implemented in the gatekeeping process, yet a gatekeeper may ask additional questions or require additional actions.

Elsillumiran -- The Weeping Blades, 2A

Preamble: Elsillumiran, colloquially dubbed the Weeping Blades, are the militant body of the Silver State of Haelun’or, which operate from within the resplendent city of Karinah’siol. Born of the reformation of its predecessor, the soldierly-company of the Weeping Blades is composed of the loyal retainers of Larihei and those few high elves yet willing to spill blood in the defense of their home. Skilled peacekeepers and combatants, Elsillumiran are masters of their island domain, having become one with its landscape and the blades and bows they raise against their enemies. Under direct control of the Okarir’tir, they are the strong right-arm of the state, entasked with the safekeeping of the city and the onerous duty of upholding its laws.

Section I: Basic Training & Induction

Elsillumiran, funded and maintained by and for the Silver State, is not a force to be reckoned with. A collective of high elves and willing non-mali under the command of the Okarir’tir, they are forever expected to endure rigorous training that shall mould them into efficient, ethical soldiers and citizens of the Silver State. To climb the rank and file of Elsillumiran, one must first display the discipline necessary to complete the difficult trials that await -- upon completion of said trials, the individual shall be inducted as an oathed soldier of Elsillumiran. 

Unoathed sillumiran must work for their uniform, and as initiates, will go through the most basic of training. The initial training will mould their character, instill unto them the respect demanded from soldiers of the Silver State, and strengthen their skills and qualities, that they might become assets in the line of defense of Haelun’or and the flock of Larihei. 

This training regime will include: expeditions to continental lands, mock skirmishes, monster-hunting, swordplay, archery training, navigation and cartographical lectures, and lessons on the history and culture of high elven purity.  

When the time comes that a captain believes an unoathed sillumir has satisfied their training, they will be granted ceremonial audience with the Okarir’tir so that they might swear themselves unto the Silver State and to the fair city they intend to serve.

To ascend to the rank and file of the officer corps, a sillumir must be referred by an actively serving captain, who will direct the aspiring officer to the Okarir’tir for specialized training and induction.

Section II: Oath of Service

“I, _________, do solemnly swear by the grace of Larihei and elmaehr’sae hiylun’ehya, that I shall bear the weight of the mantle of high elvendom and safeguard the legacy of Larihei against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I shall have faith in and allegiance to the same; that I will never falter in my duties and obligations as elsillumir; that I will give my life in exchange for this purity and serenity; and that I will obey the command of the Okarir’tir and the captain appointed to me, so that order and justice will forever follow in the wake of Elsillumiran; this I swear and shall hold to my heart. That which is demanded of me shall be done, from now until the day of my release from this oath.”

Section III: Customs and Courtesies

Elsillumiran are expected to maintain a certain standard of excellence during their service to the Silver State. In observation of this, the decorum of the sillumirn is strictly drilled. The customs and courtesies displayed in the presence of a superior exemplify gratitude and grant merit to the efficiency and character of the elite company of peacekeepers. This entails rigid professionality, both during and outside of service. Failure to obey the outlined decorum will result in punishment befitting the facetious and immature -- thus, the culture, customs and courtesies expected from the sillumirn are thoroughly instilled unto them through training and routine.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Forms of Address: All sillumiran are to address their peers by their appropriate title and are expected to show the same respect to one another in and outside of service. Words of enmity, disrespect, or insubordination are in grave error; even the most senior sillumir shall receive severe punishment. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

• “Karin/Ker’ayla, honored captain/councilor” suffices as an appropriate addressal of a commanding officer or silver councilor.
• “Karin/Ker’ayla, Arelyn” does not suffice as an appropriate addressal. One must be certain to address an officer or councilor by their rank, so as to show respect and acknowledge their authority. 
• “Karin/Ker’ayla, sillumir/Trainee” suffices as an appropriate addressal for any rank beneath the authority of a sillumirn captain.
• “Mar’karin/ker’ayla, Laurir (surname)” suffices as an appropriate addressal of Eldari councilors and courtiers. When addressing the patriarchs and matriarchs of Haelun'or's families, the intensifier mar- is always added.
• When entering the presence of a superior officer (or councilor), Elsillumiran must always salute by firmly placing their right hand onto the chest or heart as a fist.
• When departing the presence of a superior officer (but not councilor), Elsillumiran must always recite “Lye viran adont ito”, which translates from the elven tongue to, “We wait with vigilance.”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Uniform Address:

Uniforms will be provided to each sillumir, issued by rank. Each variant of the sillumir uniform bears a differently colored pin upon their cape to signify the rank they bear. Uniforms must be worn at all times -- both while performing one's duty and when representing Elsillumiran in any capacity.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section IV: Rank Structure

Below entails the structure and ranking of Elsillumiran

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Command:

Okarir’tir [Elected -- Commander] - Currently held by the honored Kiljarys an Iarwain, the Okarir’tir is elected by the populace of Haelun’or and installed as commander of the company. Seated upon the Silver Council and privileged by the wisdom of their peers, the Okarir’tir of Haelun’or is tasked with the administration of the company, strategy, communication with foreign bodies, the establishment of training routines, and the general stewardship of the Silver State’s military faculties. Excluding direct intervention from the Sohaer, the Okarir’tir is the sole individual responsible for the appointment of officers in Elsillumiran, directing them in matters pertaining to training and special projects. As the highest ranking member of Elsillumiran, the Okarir’tir demands respect and wields great authority.

Officer Corps:

Tilruir’sil of Elsillumiran [Oathed -- Officer] - Selected by the Okarir’tir, the Tilruir’sil serves as the secondary commander of Elsillumiran. The Tilruir’sil orchestrates drillings and rallies when the Okarir’tir is not present and is entrusted with the command of sillumiran captains. The Tilruir’sil also manages weapon and armor acquisitions alongside the Okarir’tir.

Captain(s) of Elsillumiran [Oathed -- Officers] - Upon the recommendation of an existing officer and by the grace of the Okarir’tir, a sillumir may undergo training to become an officer themselves. Sillumir captains are focal leaders who see to the training of their fellows, maintain quality amongst their peers, and lead swordsmen into battle, occasionally assisting the Okarir’tir when they see fit to seek insight from their officers. Sillumir captains are expected to present excellence and thus are deserving of the respect of their peers. 

Rank & File:

Magister(s) of Elsillumiran [Oathed -- Advanced Mages] - Any sillumir capable of wielding advanced or powerful magicks, having served for an elven month’s time, may ascend to the rank of magister. Magisters are responsible for the maintenance of the Silver State’s magical installations and are tasked with the destruction of Haelun’or’s enemies by means of arcane firepower. Magisters often fill anti-armor roles when on the battlefield and are commonly employed to counter magical threats.

Sillumiran (Silver Swordsmen) [Oathed -- Soldiers] - Sillumiran are oathed members of Elsillumiran tasked to serve under the Okarir’tir to ensure that the sanctity of the Silver State is preserved and that its citizens are kept pure. Their duties also include upholding the Silver Law and keeping the peace. sillumirn are empowered to conduct lawful arrests, disperse crowds, employ lethal force in the defense of Haelun’or, and investigate crime.

• Sillumiran with express seniority over their peers are sometimes elevated to the position of [NCO] Larllumir, granting them authority over enlisted sillumiran in the field.
• The most elite among Ellarllumir are sometimes elevated to the position of [NCO] Tahorren, granting them the authority to command and direct a squadron of sillumiran in the field.

Initiates (Trainees) [Unoathed -- Trainees] - Sillumir initiates, also called trainees, are members of Elsillumiran who have joined fresh off the boat. They are unoathed and have yet to be provided the suitable uniform of a sillumir. Trainees are expected to live within Karinah’siol for two weeks and undergo training on military law, authority, and the cultures of both Haelun’or and the Silver State. During their training, many skills and qualities will be drawn out from the recruits, before they are oathed as true sillumir. Initiates do not have any power outside of training unless specifically granted to them by a superior, limited to the singular task they are commanded to fulfill.
