Tighralkel

"'Out of the ashes of Naimdannel a kingdom has arisen... Led by the house Tighralkel, vessels of the gods.' -Proclamation by Treagnam upon the discovery of Tighralkel"The Kingdom of Tighralkel, or New Obdannel, was the oldest of the new kingdoms of the Rift. It was led by a king, often decended from the line of the house of Tighralkel. It served as a great military power in Thaereb before the Eden Crisis.

Government
Tighralkel was led by a king, often decended from the Tighralkel bloodline, who was given information and guided by his advisors, known as the Vessels. The Vessels were thought to be the physical representations of the various members of the Council of Dorrel, but also represented the wishes of other gods in their decisions. Further down, Lords would lead certain towns and provinces within the nation.

The Council of Forthed-Thear
A choice within the national government would often not be carried out by the Lords, and if a conflict happened because of one, the Council of Forthed-Thear would be called in the city of Forthed, the largest within the provinces of Nomandra. This Council would be a month long meeting to debate about the decisions of the King, and would consist of all of the Lords, and would be primarily propelled by the Lord or Lords who had the conflict with the decision, the king, and the Lord who called the conference.

Founding
Tighralkel was founded after the Wen Yittik War, the conflict among the various elven armies and the united armies of Nomandra, Obdannel, and Nicot, the three Northernmost provinces of Naimdannel. Saerdall Tighralkel, guided by the Traveller, searched for the ancient Sword of the Wanderer, said to be brought to Thaereb by the one who was sent to guide the people of the planet. With it, he united the three areas and marched their armies to Wen Yittik, where they lay seige to the city and fought off the armies of the shaflé. A month into the seige, after an alliance with a dorflé force, a messenger came from the city announcing its surrender and proposing the terms of peace, which stated that Tighralkel would have ownership of the lands he chose North of Wen Yittik, but the elven city would be allowed to keep its claims on the penninsula of Noriga. Tighralkel accepted, signing the Treaty of Gold within the city and forming the kingdom of Tighralkel.
