“Blessed citizens of the Motherland,

 

As was previously announced upon my assumption of the title of elOkarir’sil, elSillumiran shall undergo drastic change in order to be brought to conformity with the new standards of the age, and to be able to carry upon their shoulders the protection of our swelling populace, the defense of our sacred halls and marble walls.

 

Therefore, it is after consulting elSohaer and elHeial’Thilln, that I announce the following be enacted into law, effective immediately.”

 

I. ON CONSCRIPTION

Henceforth, all Citizens and Blessed Citizens of the Motherland are lawfully required to take up arms in its defense - to learn the way of the blade of elSillumiran, and to go through the hardships of active military service.

Therefore, from this point onwards, all Citizens and Blessed Citizens are to report to The Bastille to be supplied with arms and armour, to be tutored in decorum, martial skills and knowledge of the Silver Law.

Service within elSillumiran is mandatory for all Citizens and Blessed Citizens for a period of four consecutive years.

Upon entering conscripted service, all Citizens and Blessed Citizens acquire the rank of elSilthulir, and join the Silthuliran Corps.

Shall a Blessed Citizen decide to continue their service within elSillumiran past their mandatory service period, they acquire the rank of Fi’Diraar.

Lauriran, Malauriran, Tilruiran and Okariran are exempt from such service. ElOkarir’sil may exempt Citizens and Blessed Citizens from mandatory service at their own discretion.

Citizens and Blessed Citizens who have completed their mandatory military service are liable to be mobilized in times of extraordinary need, at the discretion of elOkarir’sil.

 

II. ON THE FORMATION OF ELSILTHULIRAN

Henceforth, the rank of “Auxiliary” is null and void. Any and all who hold this rank now acquire the rank of Silthulir.

The rank of Silthulir is the highest attainable for Citizens. All conscripted Citizens and Blessed Citizens acquire this rank, and Blessed Citizens may advance past it should they desire to continue their service.

ElSilthuliran shall be formed in their own distinct corps, serving to aid the main body of soldiery within elSillumiran as auxiliary units.

The ElSilthuliran Corps shall be commanded by a Div’Kinael, aided by a Tahorran, both appointed at the discretion of elOkarir’sil.

 

III. ON THE DISSOLUTION OF ELEVARIRAN’THILLN

Henceforth, the private guard of elMaheral, known until now as elEvariran’Thilln, is to be dissolved.

All Sillumiran who serve actively within elEvariran’Thilln are to be transferred to the main body of Sillumir soldiery.

 

IV. ON THE OFFICER CORPS

The officer corps of elSillumiran is to be formed by junior officers - elTahorranii - and senior officers - elDiv’Kinaelan.

ElDiv’Kinaelan and elTahorranii are appointed at the discretion of elOkarir’sil.

ElDiv’Kinaelan are tasked with the leading of corps-sized units, the oversight of daily activities of elSillumiran, the conduction of oath ceremonies, the leading of soldiery into battle, and with any other tasks and responsibilities that may be entrusted upon them by elOkarir’sil or elTilruir’sil.

Each Div’Kinael is assigned a second in command - elTahorran. As such, elDiv’Kinael may appoint a Tahorran after gaining permission to do such by either elOkarir’sil or elTilruir’sil. ElTahorranii are tasked with aiding elDiv’Kinaelan with the daily operations of the unit entrusted upon them.

 

V. ON RITES OF INITIATION

Henceforth, elSillumiran shall know the following rites of initiation:

1. The Oath

Each newly recruited Sillumir or Silthulir are to profess the oath of loyalty which has stood unchanged for millennia.

Larihei, kae'len cruan sulier, ay'kae vallumer'ehya           Larihei, Behold my pain, and weep for me

Elihnsil, Elberr, kina'ehya,                                                 The Spear, The Bow, and death,

laean kae wynne myumiereyae.                                          these bring me no joy.

ay'nae'leh sirame k' taliiyhe, ay'elcihil k' cruare                 for your honor I bleed, for the city I suffer

il'iylkarim, mirueln thill'ehya ito kae'leh                           With this day, I am of silver and red.

2. The Vile Hunt - elAel’orran

Upon ascending the rank of Halerir, the Fi’Diraar is required, under the guide of a Tahorran or an above-ranking officer, they are to hunt down and kill a dangerous wild beast. Upon the completion of the task, they are to take a trophy which shall be reforged into an accoutrement to further their service within elSillumiran, and presented thence to the officer commanding, wherein they are officially promoted to the rank of Halerir.

3. The Silver Ball - elAnnyerin’thilln

Upon the ascension of any officer rank, the person thence promoted is afforded a ball, to be paid for by the coffers of elSillumiran, wherein their ascension to this most sacred duty is to be celebrated by both the residents and the citizenry of elCihi’Thilln. ElAnnyerin’thilln is to be organized by a Tahorran or above-ranking, appointed for such at the discretion of elOkarir’sil or elTilruir’sil.

From some vague, unnamed point in elcihi'thilln, a low chuckle left the lips of one advisor and full-time problem-solver of the Silver State.

 

"Ho-dear... This is bound to end well."

 

A smirk pulled out her lips as though the thought of the scholarly mali'thill being made to attend drills and suffer under physical exertion brought her some sort of grim satisfaction.

Roy grumbled, already regretting his decision to house the guild within Haelunor's walls- no time to stand around, there are plans to be made incase they had to move.
