The Nation Ashmir and Town Ashmore are run by a Council consisting of Five different parties, all having their own Household and bloodlines. Each House are known for different things, whether rumoured to be good or bad. Despite each houses reputation, they all are the decisionmakers; Voting on certain laws, Rules, And even determining if one is guilty of a crime or not. Each House has a leader that represents the house and manages it, appointing people within their bloodline or house into different positions or giving them different responsibilities
