In time these first settlers founded the Church of The Bright Path; and this cult of Solandria remains one of the cornerstones of Kotari life to this day.

Landholders' Council

2005-12-28T11:12:12Z

202.58.85.4:

Kotari settlements are typically composed of a group of fortified manor houses, each of which protects a scattered collection of farmsteads. This arrangement is brought about by the Land Code of [[Kotar]]; which states that to lay claim to land you must be able to defend it and that if your land is defended by another then you must swear fealty to him. Thus in Kotar the noble Landholders must also be keen warriors – ensuring the safety of a number of nearby farms that pay them a tithe in return. Every farmer owns his own land, but only one who defends his neighbours and recieves their fealty in return can declare himself a Landholder.
