History of the Council, vol. 5

The History of the Council is a book detailing well... This history of the Council.

“

... and so the Council of Thirteen was no more. This "Dissenting Five," as they were called, were banished from Alharth, and a Council Decree stated that their names were never to be spoken again.

Shortly thereafter, "The Council of Thirteen" renamed itself "The Council of Eight." They maintained eight members for 103 years, replacing members as needed, but starting with Torsager the Regent's retirement, they stopped anointing new members.

For a time they called themselves "The Council of Five," before finally settling on just "The Council." Its four surviving members have served for over 180 years, with no signs of stopping. All praise The Council! All praise its benevolence!
