Principles & Philosophy:

• Aligned with The Light.
• Wishes to continue the partnership between Isparians and the few remaining Yalain.
• Wishes to harness the power of the Ley Lines to:
  • Defend against The Nameless and the forces of Shadow.
  • Defend Dereth, making it a secure and peaceful place.
  • Free the Yalain from portal space.
• Not in direct support of Asheron, but shares many values.
• Not allied with Elysa Strathelar or New Aluvia, but not opposed to them either.

Criticisms:

• Seen as too "good" by some or lacking depth.
• Conspiracy theories involving a much more pro-Yalain agenda than laid out in the Principles of the Celestial Hand, including the return of the Yalain and subsequent enslavement or eradication of the Isparian population.
