The people who went on to form the Borillisk Empire had long held their elders in the highest esteem. Their shamans, once they became venerable with age, were revered like saints. Thus, in 790, with the establishment of the Borillisk state in the southernmost parts of the Gulimbor Region, leadership fell to a geriatocracy where the elders and the very old made all the decisions. This council of wise men became known as the Elder Furs, a name derived from the heavy furs they wore in the great open-area forum at the heart of Lanirûk.
They are forever complaining about feeling chilled, so we provide them with blankets or elegantly crafted coats, which they then pilfer from the forum. When they are not dozing off, snoring, the elderly rascals are constantly up to some mischief. We are fortunate that there are nearly a hundred of them, for if there were any fewer, we would be forced to grovel at the feet of a Khazarkar.
The Pendax Forum in Lanirûk was a gathering of scholars, mystics, and philosophers. They convened to engage in lively discourse, share insights, and ponder the mysteries of the world. The attendees participated in vigorous debates, explored esoteric topics, and sought to expand their understanding of the human condition and the cosmos. The discussions were often impassioned, with individuals offering diverse perspectives and challenging one another's beliefs. Through this exchange of ideas, the participants hoped to uncover new truths and gain deeper wisdom. The Pendax Forum provided a platform for the free flow of knowledge and the advancement of intellectual pursuits within the community of Lanirûk.
