So who is the Soratan referred to in the Far haven info? Presumably he must be a well known person (giant?) for people to object to him:
Guardian Avengers: The name for the city watch and internal security force, outsiders claim that it is simply an assassins cult disguised as a peacekeeping organisation. Vocal opponents of Soratan have certainly been known to disappear or come to a messy end – so there may be a degree of truth in these claims.
Meeting Place: Every so often a number of the local nomadic tribes will meet up outside Far Haven, normally for trade but occasionally for other reasons such as inter tribe dispute resolution (for some reason Soratan is recognised by the tribes as a wise man – or giant).

Can one person take on both roles simultaneously? And does each major city/temple have their own - or is there an overall leader, or is one recognised as the most senior seat (as in the Archbishop of Canterbury?)
