Firesong Council

The Firesong Council is the governing body of the Sin'dorei House of Firesong, and consists of top magical, military, civilian, business, and external voices.

The Firesong Council exists formally to provide council to the ruling Patriarch, and the military and arcane positions are selected by the Lord Arcanist, though all councilors are expected to strive to view matters objectively.

The Sun Matriarch of House Firesong, currently Salandra Firesong, is the formal head of the body which by a 3/4 vote, can force hearings and seek alternate proposals from the Lordship.

These provisions exist when there is wide consensus including by his allies, of a Lord's wrongdoing, and records show them sparsely being used in the 11,000 year history of House Firesong, and the Council serves as the primary military and civilian leadership of Hose Firesong.

History
Informal advisers have always played a role in both House Firesong's Patriarchal and Matriarchal sides, each with commanders as befit their responsibility. A Firesong Mage-Lord's sphere of governance includes all military and magical authority, and as strong a role as the Lordship seeks in matters of diplomacy and politics.

The later spheres are generally those of the Sun Matriarch, whom serves as governess of the capital of Firesong-governed Ashal'Thalas, Bal'adeni, where the Firesong Council Chambers stand in the city's Royal Quarter.

The Sun Matriarch is responsible for the management of the civilian population, and the day to day running of Ashal'Thalas. Docking fee collectors, scribes, tax collectors and many artisans answer to the Sun Matriarch.
