Clean Lore

The Lord Protector of Centerra rules with the counsel of the Crown Council, whose seats oversee the realm's court, army, laws, coin, secrets, diplomacy, borders, and sacred institutions. Beneath the Marshal of the Sunfire Legion, Centerra's military strength is divided between the Ground Legion Command and the Dragon Aerie Command: one holding the roads, walls, and fields of the realm, the other guarding the skies on wings of scale.
