Clan of the Sunset Moss

-
The Clan of the Sunset Moss, or Qod Etherhi, are only of founding
clans of the Chlendi settlements of the Rhiat. They are historically
notable for took the Chlendi crown in one of the few interruptions of
the Black Lily dynasty. After an occurrence of the Chlendi Black Pox
on the mainland, Iminir of the Black Lily Crown offered himself in
sacrifice to Paeglaphiis, Chlendi spirit of disease. Lacking a an heir
Iminir's cousin, Shokinnan of the Sunset Moss, took the crown and seat
upon the Crooked Throne. Shokinnan and his clan held title for almost
150 years before an arranged marriage restored the Black Lily to their
rightful spot in 1687.

Shokinnan was the founder Pugshlow, and the clan remains the rulers of
the region. The town's original border can be seen in a ring of swamp
graves 3 miles out. During the border skirmished with the Maetah, the
Etherhi claim pacts with a Chlendi War Spirit,
Itil-called-the-Vengeful. They claim the blessing of this spirit
allowed acid to pour from the heavens, destroying Maetah crops and
driving back their troops.

Shokinnan's ancestors still hold the manorhouse on Eel Row in Pugshlow
and remain remain suspicious of the Lelleivantli Lodge's incursions
and their alliance with the Infaux.

Modern philosophy has admitted a plenum or universal principle of fluid matter, which occupies all space; and that as all bodies moving in the world, abound with pores, this fluid matter introduces itself through the interstices and returns backwards and forwards, flowing through one body by the currents which issue therefrom to another, as in a magnet, which produces that phenomenon which we call Animal Magnetism. This fluid consists of fire, air and spirit, and like all other fluids tends to an equilibrium, therefore it is easy to conceive how the efforts which the bodies make towards each other produce animal electricity, which in fact is no more than the effect produced between two bodies, one of which has more motion than the other; a phenomenon serving to prove that the body which has most motion communicates it to the other, until the medium of motion becomes an equilibrium between the two bodies, and then this equality of motion produces animal electricity.

Grandmother Moss

Grandmother Moss lives on the edge of the "Boglai" Jungle just beyond the Ghikarn Colony of Tuloi. She was an original resident of the Mindat coastal community and is one of the last remaining of her people in the areas. Grandmother Moss lives with her granddaughter, Ahko, and is protective of her to a level bordering on abusive.  She sees to Ahko's studies, putting her on the path to Mindat Academia (including the broad brimmed hat).  She trusts her granddaughter's judgement and skills enough to let her roam a few miles distant from their home, but only when her studies are complete. They live together in a small stilt-raised hut obscured by approachable directions by heavy, cultivated foliage.  They are served by a nog, Pilk, who lives under the hut with his pet pitchfork and tends to gardening and manual labor. Grandmother Moss appears as a weather-worn elderly Mindat woman, who is relatively spry for her age, despite failing sigh and use of a cane.  She chain
