Kirit Vaushil Rank/Title in Binaka | World Anvil

Kirit Vaushil

Nauŗīk hurried to the king's audience chamber. "What is so important Badnīl had to call me from my research?" he thought.   "Ah, my friend Nauŗīk!" cried King Badnīl Qau as Nauŗīk entered the spacious room. "It is so good to see you!"   "And you as well, my king. To what do I owe the honor?"   Badnīl rose from his seat, walked to his friend and clasped Nauŗīk's hands in his. "How long have we known one another?"   "For longer than I can remember."   "Yes. And you've always had your eyes to the stars, for all that time."   "They speak to me in ways people cannot."   "And that is why I ask you here today. My friend, the Kaushan have many stories of the skies, do we not?"   "Yes, indeed we do. And those stories have much to tell us."   "Certainly!" A smile began to grow on the king's face. "But where are those stories recorded? What happens to those stories when we die?"   "Some are written in the Histories, but most are simply shared father to son, through the ages."   "I wish to remedy that. I want our stories recorded for all to know, even those who have no father or mother who is Kaushan. And you, Nauŗīk, my friend for longer than any other, I wish you to record those stories. But more, I desire to learn what other stories the stars may yet tell us. I wish you to sort the skies for me."   "I... I am honored! I shall do whatever I can to help with this desire of yours."   "Then you'll be my first Kirit Vaushil? You'll order the skies for me?"   "Of course!"
  King Badnīl Qau created the position of Kirit Vaushil /ˈkɪɹɪt.ˈvaʊʃɪl/, (literally "one who orders the sky") for his long time friend Nauŗīk Vaishir.
