The Kaljadian Empire
It is important to note:
This information is mostly alien to the outside world. In fact, the only tie this nation has to the outside world is through Nebaji , and even that settlement is not aware of the organization. For more clarity, it's recommended to read the articles Kaldona and The Ritual of Sunset
Nestled in the eastern reaches of The Luwani Desert, Kaldona exists in a shroud hidden by a magically attuned device, camouflaging the surrounding area. This area is owned by The Kaljadian Empire.
It is compromised of several pyramids, deemed houses. These pyramids provide homes for the leaders, and other members of the house, including servants, family members, advisers, workers, and other professionals loyal to the head. Their layouts are generally in ascending order, so a servant may live at the very base, a worker on the next tier, then the merchants, so on and so forth with the head of the house at the top. It is important to note that even though there are servants and workers, they are not treated poorly because of their lower standing, often openly valued for their labor.
These houses are generally named after a noun, generally either what they may worship or value, or a material used in a trade often practiced in the house. An example of house names are:
- The House of Jade
- The House of Gold
- The House of Horses
- The House of the Moon
- The House of the Sands
- The House of the Hawk
- The House of the River
The largest and most prominent is The House of the Sun, where the ruler, currently Nediarakhen, and their members live.

Legislative Body
The head of the empire makes the laws of the land, often referred to as 'the ceiling', while each individual house will also impose its own rule within this law. An example would be if the law limits a house to five horses, the head of the house may impose a further restriction of only three horses, or that the five horses dictated in the law can only be owned by the upper portions of the pyramid/house.
