Founded in 333 AF, the '''Te'Serra Alliance''' (a.k.a. the '''Te'Serran Alliance'''), also just called "the | Founded in 333 AF, the '''Te'Serra Alliance''' (a.k.a. the '''Te'Serran Alliance'''), also just called "the Te'Serra" in Shallamese culture, is a political and spiritual alliance between Lord [[Pentharian]], Lady [[Mithraea]], and Lady [[Lorielan]], in service to [[Shallam]]. Lady [[Miramar]] was a member of the alliance prior to Her death in 610. Unlike the [[Triad of the Night]] in [[Hashan]], this Divine trio continues to patron the Jewel's affairs to this day. The Te'serra Pavilion once honoured this union within the courtyards of Shallam's royal palace, so named after the official term for Their common bond with each other and the greater [[Good]]. | ||
In 6 Miraman 502 the Te'Serra came to the forefront of Shallamese politics when they established the Caliphate, a theocratic city ruler office, allowing Them direct political power in Shallam; They have veto and approval power over candidates for Vizier, power to appoint and dismiss the Caliph, and power to enact and abolish law and policy. | |||
In 24 Miraman 568 the Te'Serra were instrumental in the dismantling of the [[Holy Church]] and removal of the Shallamese Royal Palace, raising up the [[Citadel of Light]] in its place as a symbol of unity between Church and state. Helmed by the Te'Serra and Caliph of Shallam, the Citadel of Light did not replace the traditional Council of Viziers. It acts as a religious body which champions and comments on the ideals of Light, Righteousness, and Truth, as was formerly the province of the Holy Church. Nonetheless, membership within its crystal walls is essential for higher office in Shallam. The Caliph also oversees the skill of [[Devotion]] from the Citadel, as empowered by the Te'Serra. | |||
