Walking the precarious and, at times, dangerous bridge between the spiritual and material worlds, the Spirit Walkers hold the notion of balancing the path as paramount to survival. A false step in either direction can collapse the path, with all efforts, and even practitioners lost to other realms.
Abiding by the rule of "Three Upon Three Upon Three", the Spirit Walkers are ruled by a Prophet in the governing form of a dictatorship. No House leader may serve more than a twenty-seven year term. An Heir to the Prophet’s leadership is named at the cusp of the leader's first decade in that position. Upon the naming and ascension of each new Heir, the successor to the current Prophet or Prophetess, a celebration is held called the Festival of the Spirits.
Founding
Little information is known regarding the founding of the organisation.
Closing
In the year 688AF, following the Sundering of the Crown, the members of the Tribe abandoned the Fortress, effectively disbanding the organisation, and joining the citizens of Hashan in reshaping the focus of their city. The estate still stands in Hashan, a testament to its inhabitants' centuries of dedication, and remains home to various spirits.

Inhabitants
Tithian, the Shaman, stands before the Fortress as the former House's tutor. He is the brother of Instructor Phineus, Warden of Knowledge, who was House tutor to the Wardens of the Cerulean Spire. Other denizens include a very mellow humgii which still resides in the Reliquary just outside the Fortress, as well as Tzen'uirath, the planeswalker, and Kalden, Guardian of the Veil
