Leadership
The land is ruled by two siblings. One to control the people and the other to work on foreign relations, aka war. One sibling is born infertile while the other has twins, it has been a genetic trait of the royal family. The siblings are then trained to be both types of rulers and decide amongst themselves which wants to be which. There is also a council of seven which also helps regulate policy and helps represent various areas of the land.
The Empress and King are not allowed to communicate with the council of Rhianthriel outside of meetings, for fear of bribery or corruption. There are many restrictions on the royal siblings to assure fairness and freedom of voice. At times this can be quite suffocating, however, there are loopholes to many structures, for example the assistants.

Info: The military is a large part of Rhianthriel, more than half of the people living in the kingdom are part of the military. However, the military is set up into four groups instead of three, 5% of the military is centered in the Navy, 5% is on reserve, 3% is party of the general garrison and 2% is part of the public police. These "police" are more like officers of they law, they are those who arrest and place lawbreakers to jail. The officers of the law or the Yakuinoko is controlled and regulated by the Empress of the land not the military of the King. This system is to assure that there is not too much power in the hands of the military.
The Yakuniko
These are a collective group of skilled, law-abiding swords and ability users who wanted to regulate laws in the city. No one is conscripted to join or stay, it is purely voluntary. However, it holds nearly a million soldiers, who have yet to retire. Although the police against a whole kingdom and wide land is hard at times, the Yakuniko are great soldiers who never give up in helping protect the citizens of the kingdom. The Yakuinoko hold their position in high regard and do their best to uphold the laws of their Empress and ideals of their King.

WIP
Hundreds and hundreds of years ago when humans were just becoming known in this world. Once there was a sliver of light, a silver lining that fell from the heavens to earth. As it fell, thw sliver lining turned into a silky creature, one with long black fur, like the midnight sky with tiny strands of light around her. The creature no face only a painted mask. She had no powers known, had no mission, and nothing to prove. Just a simple creature who roamed the strange new land she found herself in.
The creature grew and learned over time what this place was. She watched the people of this land and adopted some of their customs. She gave herself a name by piecing words from various languages together. She decided on the name Rhian and continued traveling. She traveled along, using the land she slowly began to understand. She took only what she needed from the other races. Small things, clothes and scraps of cloth, always leaving something in return of equal value.
She continued to wander finding new locations and creatures around the globe. However, she grew tired of wandering and sick of not having a goal in sight. She wanted to find happiness like every other creature she came across.
From listening to the humans folklore she heard of a mysterious creature, that lived in a dangerous forbidden part of the land, who could grant wishes. It was told to hack milky white furniture with hints of gold trailing behind it. The creature would have large antlers so wide that they held the moon, each one having wishes and charms dangling from them. She decided that she would venture into the forbidden land and go find this mysterious creature.
She traveled the forbidden land for three years in hopes of find the mysterious creature. Then on one starry night she finally found him, the mysterious creature. The creature claimed no name, but was said to be known as Thirel. Rhian went up to the creature and offered him her most prized possession, a seed of a water tree plant, in exchange for her wish. Thirel looked at her calmly and spoke, "tell me Rhian. What is it the you wish for?"
Rhian responded, "I have traveled this world for many years and have seen every creature, big and small serve a purpose in this world and find happiness. I wish more than anything else in the world to find my happiness as well."
Thirel paused for a moment and nodded "very well I shall grant your wish." The creature took the seed, placed it in her stomach and kissed her forehead. Ad he did the creature vanished from sight. After nearly a year Rhian gave birth to one three tailed child who then splot into three children. Her heart was overjoyed and she felt true happiness.
She spent her time in the forbidden land with her three daughters. She taught them what she had learned about this strange new world and the people whom she had met. The children listened to her tales each wanting to experience the world as well. She deceived vast mountains and wide seas. Rivers full of fish and aquatic life, amazingly green fields and the small creatures who lived in them. She even told her children of the dangers she faced, the beasts she faced and the beasts others faced. The children were amazed, they all wanted to travel the last piece of uncharted land that they called home.
When her children were old enough Rhian began to travel with them. At first they started at a small central tree where they lived, and gradually traveled further. They began to camp out in the woods, Rhian taught her daughters how to gather and fight along with cooking and cleaning. She showed them the edible vs inedible plants of the forest and how to take down even the most dangerous foes with ease
She continued to lead them even further into the forbidden lands. She made a map of where they went and what they had found. This map was the first map of Rhianthriel and is cosidered a sacred relic.
She traveled with her children discovering new unknown areas. She found many sacred and dangerous areas, some they could enter, some they left alone. They charted and learned of their new home. The children played happily loving the chance to be adventurers. Rhian decided this was the realm they would claim for their own. She began to mark her tertiary with mist which is her aura. Tiny flames would spear and dissapears over the border.
Today seeing one of these blue flames is a sign of good fortune on a journey out of the country. It is a considered a blessing from Rhian, a reminder that she is still there watching over you.
Nearing the ends of their journey Rhian taught her daughters the most important lesson. Stay far from humans. She told them of their great courage, but also their fear of the unknown or different. She taught them how to hide and block their view and scent from others. She taught them how to use various herbs to cause the humans to hallucinate and loose their short term memory.
Although many of these recipes have been lost, many Lyn still use these medicinal recipes. They are experts at creating smoke bombs and other weaponized herbal plats. However they try to solely use the apothecary skills for healing and physical improvement.
After years of traveling Rhian and her children headed back to their home in the tree. However, as they returned Rhian's mind slowly began to fade. She began to be startle more easily, sleep less and stare off with a blank expression. She had mood swings, she would be happy for a moment and the furious the next. She began to move very slowly and began to see hallucinations.
She would she her three beautiful daughters as hounds from hell, with skulls for heads and flames foe bodies. Some days she would run in terror away from her children. The girls still young did not understand why she would run and chased her playfully. They would fun for hours until Rhian snapped out of it.
To this day, many of the royal family has a high chance of developing schizophrenia in their later years. This is the reason that there are two rules along with a council, to keep those who are able minded in control.
As time passed the hauntings grew stronger and her illness more apparent. She began to see the hell hounds everywhere, not just in her children. Rhian realized that she was no longer fit to raise her children she decided to leave. She wrote her daughters each a letter, telling them why she was leaving and how sorry she was.
She left by first winter, leaving her children to fend for themselves. The daughters didn't understand at first, how they could survive. However over a few years they persevered and started the Lyn people.
Rhian was slowly returning to her natural state, the sliver lining she came from. As timw passed her by she went to see how her children were doing. She saw her first daughter taking her children out of her house for a evening stroll. She could her more of her family laughing from inside the house.
As they grew closer, Rhian could see that her daughter had developed a human face. Her daughters husband called for her and her children to come back inside and they follow suit. It is foretold that Rhian's first daughter Koharu had nearly 70 children before her passing. She is considered the largest birth mother of the Lyn people and the designated diety of earth and fertility.
Rhian went to her second daughter, Arima, who had become a priestess of the land. She had many children, but abstained herself to become more spiritually aware. She became extremely sensitive to the world around her and became hyper aware. Some say she could see the past, control the wind and even change fate. Although none of these claims have been historically proven, she is considered there deity of the sky, afterlife and heavens.
There is a small group of people who devoted themselves to the study of her and her true abilities.
Rhian went to her third daughter who had changed much over the years. Chang'e developed pure white fur and stretched ears, it was seen as a browning anomaly. She took up many children and was considered the matron of peace. She became a great political leader showing great wisdom. She spent most of her time living near the lakes. Over time she was considered the deity of the sea.
There a stone statues of Chang'e that are considered to be a good luck charm for sea travelers. It is said that she can be seen in the mystical lake that she once lived near, deep within in the forest.
After discovering how her children have grown so without her. Rhian decided with the last of her life and sanity that she would go find Thriel. She wanted to thank Thriel for fulfilling her wish before she lost all parts of herself. She always felt a connection to the creature as if they were one in the same.
As Rhian traveled down through the new area she called home, Rhian began to change. Her body grew smaller and she began to grow more tails, each for the decade she had lived. All she had for company were her small flames that followed her.
Thriel found the flames and followed them curiously, his body changing as well. He grew small bright whips of light flowing around him and his face became more mask like. He felt a strange pull towards something. It was as if there was a string of fate tying him to something.
He followed the path with the ideals.
