'''The Empyreal Assembly''', formerly called the '''Priests Guild,''' is one of the oldest organisations in Achaea, although the details of its formation is mostly lost in history. Along with the [[Templars]] the Empyreal Assembly formed one of the two major arms of the [[Church|Church of Achaea]]. Originally housed in [[Delos]], the Guild and now House moved to Shallam when the Church successfully petitioned [[Sarapis]] to move the [[Basilica]] to [[Shallam]]. In the [[Modern Age]], the Priests Guild was founded by Odysseus in 178 AF. The Guild became a House in 396 AF. The organisation is devoted to the tenets of Honour, Service, and Wisdom as well as the ideals of Order, Righteousness, and Light.

Originally, only those of the [[Priest]] [[:Category:Classes|class]] were allowed to join. However, in the year 403, they began to allow membership to those of the [[Paladin]] class.  They have gradually increased the number of allowed classes since that time. The [[:Category:Skills|skills]] of the Priest class evolved slowly over the history of the organisation, developing after specific events and derived older practices. The skill of [[Spirituality]], for example, was gifted to the ancient Priests by the Hierarchs of [[Celestia]] after being judged worthy of having angels as guardians. [[Devotion (skill)|Devotion]] is derived from the ancient Rites of the Holy Church and once existed as more a compact version of the older one.
