Local Government

Flätäzaëdhëna
Tënona hySang
The current serving Flätäzaëdhëna, is Tënona hySang, a young nobleman and knight, who has served for four years, and is currently in his second consecutive term in office. His approach to managing the town has caused some stir with the local nobility, as he often favours merit and skill over connections to wealth and historic power.
Klëpëdhëmü
The town has a small council of elected officials which see to the bureaucratic needs of the town. This council elects a Flätäzaëdhë - Town-Master - from amongst their ranks to be the town's leader. Elections occur every three years unless the death of a councilor or the flätäzaëdhë shortens this period, requiring a by-election. The next election is due in two years. Historically councilors have been from the richer guildpersons or nobles dwelling within the town.
The current town Klëpëdhëmü - Wise-Masters - are:
