The Natural Law 

of the 

Viridian Enclave

The laws of nature and druii are not written in ink, but in the rhythms of the seasons and the silence of the stones. It is the blueprint of a society made to mirror the wilds and the delicate balance in which it encompasses. We align our mortal laws with the unyielding laws of nature, ensuring that our path remains a mirror to the harmony of the wilds.

This document exists as a public-facing parchment: the laws most relevant to the populace.

Authority
 

The Oth’ari

The Oth’ari are the archdruids of the druidic order and the council of leadership that oversee the Viridian Enclave. By tradition, the council is composed of three individuals. This structure prevents a single perspective from dominating and ensures that decisions are tempered by diverse interpretations of natural law.

Heial'taliame

The Heial'taliame is an elder council made up to assist with political decisions, stewardry, the, Orrar'ir and so forth. These individuals are typically elected by those within the Viridian Enclave or elected fourth by the Oth’ari

Before a new decree is passed by the Oth’ari, it is often brought before the Heial'taliame to ensure it aligns with the core principles of the Viridian Enclave. In rare cases where the three  Oth’ari are deadlocked or in disagreement, the Heial'taliame provide the "Elder’s Perspective" to help break the tie.

Orrar'ir

The Orrar'ir serve as the dedicated guardforce, sentinels, and martial arm of the Viridian Enclave. While the Oth’ari guide and the Heial'taliame advise, the Orrar'ir enforce the natural law and ensure the physical safety of the enclave from external threats and internal disruptions. 

This guardforce answers directly to the Heial'taliame and Oth’ari. Though should none be present have the authority to detain suspicious or problematic individuals.
