The Forest of the Wind is governed by five Tengu who have proven themselves in trials of combat, tactics and wit. All Tengu are able to participate in the Trials, no matter their background. Should there be more than five Tengu that pass the trials, there is a democratic vote for the five members. Those who are not voted for are still highly respected individuals.
The council of Five then decide upon pay rates, taxes and other ventures. They are able abolish and create new laws that all Tengu must abide by.
All Tengu respect each other, no matter their background. This respect creates the bond that hold the society together.

Non-violet foreigners are to consult with the Council. Violent foreigners are to be immediately put down.

== Defense ==
The Forest is heavily patrolled by Tengu, and it is very unlikely that anything could slip by their vigilance. The perpetual wind protects the forest from fire that is not directly sent upon the forest. This wind also helps Tengu locate foreigners or other strange beings that wonder into the forest.
== Fashion and Art ==
The Tengu are quite artistic, often producing many artworks that depict landscapes, forests or plants. Rarely do they draw animals or other people/Tengu in their art.
Only those in the Council may wear regal clothing, and the rest of the Tengu population wears peasant clothing or profession outfits. However there is some creative degree allowed in a common Tengu's clothing to show some artistic individuality.
== Economy ==
Despite being so cut off from the rest of Tessanis, the Tengu have actually adopted the Common Currency of Gold, Silver and Copper pieces. Which is used in everyday trading among other things.
