Ramos

This small abbey town is located just west of Valoret on the South side of the River Eirian.  It was here that the Mother Houses of the Little Brothers of Saint Ercon and its successor Order, the Custodes Fidei, were established in the early 10th century.  It was also the site of the infamous Council of Ramos held in the years 917 and 918, which promulgated the 1st measures prohibiting Deryni from participating in the Church or holding noble titles or owning property.  Lord Paulin Sinclair, the founder of both Orders, was born here.
