Jova A Oosan
Stronger Political Unity
After the Deep Selke's defeat, the Tribe of the Maya's Chief, Galdianne A Oosan, successfully negotiated peace between the two tribes and instituted a Council of Four. The Council was an assembly made up of delegates from the four tribes. The Council meets at least four times a year (once per season) and discusses international matters. The Change is often on the Council's agenda.
Diaspora
Around four hundred years ago, the Tribe of the Maya went through another traumatic event. As the Change spread throughout the tribe for the first time, Galdianne A Oosan's daughter, Jova A Oosan, made the terrible decision to banish any pup who showed any signs of the Change.
In view of the inhuman treatment of their kin and their offspring, many families decided to leave the Brechin Rigdge and look for a new home. The outcasts founded a fifth tribe, the Tribe of the New. They did not have far to go to find a new home: the New settled in the fertile kelp forests south of the Brechin Ridge, they called the Greenfields Hills.
Relationships between the New and the rest of the Council Tribes are never straightforward. The New Selkes do not trust the old tribes to do right by them, and they are always very suspicious of what decisions they will make. The Council is also very wary of the New's fascination and involvement with the Alvenites.
