Threadbearers

The Threadbearers are a Hanahai holy order that ties ritual knots of sanctified thread before the Motosui Assembly as a physical manifestation of each treaty. More importantly, they gather, copy, store, and organize the many treaties made by Khilaian crews.
Threadbearers are, in essence, the archivists, emissaries, and lawyers of the Khilaia. They conduct licensing tests for fully practicing lawyers, teach law at the University, and mediate legal disputes in the Assembly courts. Threadbearers often weigh in on what might be called 'Constitutional issues' - the limits and interpretations of power within the broad legal structures of the Khilaia. 
The Threadbearers are a semi-religious organization infused with traditional practices of Hamekun. They overlap with the cult of Daykai, the great Ancestor.
