Description
The order of Thrones is ruled by the Tome Archons or Hebdomad, who each rule an entire layer of Mount Celestia. Raziel, the tome archon of battles whose symbol is the Bear, rules Mertion.
Realm
Raziel, known to his peers as the Firestar for his judicious wrath, rules Mertion from the city of Empyrea. As the patron of paladins and warriors, he holds no permanent fortress but can be found in any of the city's many hospitals and infirmaries, providing spiritual guidance and protection to the clerics and patients within.
Relationships
Al'Akbar dwells in Mertion, in Soqed Hezi, the City of Swords. The ruler of Soqed Hezi is the sword archon Bahram, known as the Conquering and Triumphant Fire, who answers only to Raziel.
