496 BHM Ivorus Windslayer (Age Slowed 90) appeased his grandchildren's attempt at the throne. The Referendum and The Eastern Moot is established. Once a monarch dies or succeeds to their next male heir, female if there is no males, then The Referendum between the children of the fallen monarch begins. This takes a year for the children to make their way to each village, this also allows a year of mourning for the fallen monarch. The heir child is known as the Moot Electorate until they are voted in or win the East Moot, only then can someone be declared the Eastmonarch. If the monarch was murdered or their death caused by a family member outside of the East Moot then that person loses their right to the throne. All children of the Eastmonarch explain to the leaders of the East why they should rule the people. Then the election is held as all village leaders of the East travel to the Hedgespire to cast their vote, usually voicing the will of their own village. If the election finishes and no one has secured a majority between the siblings then an Eastern Moot begins. At this time, any sibling, nephew, niece, cousin or grandchild not directly in line for the throne may announce their Contest of Challenge. This allows all descendants of the recently deceased or dethroned Eastmonarch to take part in a tournament to prove their Right to Rule through battle. The challenges are dangerous and potentially deadly, the final match between the winner of the East Moot must duel the reigning Moot Electorate who declared the Referendum. Once a victor is declared and named the Eastmonarch then the rest of the family cannot challenge again until that monarch dies, this is especially true since most challenges can result in death. Although killing the opponents are not necessary, it does happen and yielding ensures you will not receives backing if you challenge again in the next Referendum. This allows the strongest of the bloodline to continue to rule the East.

496 BHM Ivorus Windslayer (Age Slowed 90) appeased his grandchildren's attempt at the throne. The Referendum and The Eastern Moot is established. Once a monarch dies or succeeds to their next male heir, female if there is no males, then The Referendum between the children of the fallen monarch begins. This takes a year for the children to make their way to each village, this also allows a year of mourning for the fallen monarch. The heir child is known as the Moot Electorate until they are voted in or win the East Moot, only then can someone be declared the Eastmonarch. If the monarch was murdered or their death caused by a family member outside of the East Moot then that person loses their right to the throne. All children of the Eastmonarch explain to the leaders of the East why they should rule the people. Then the election is held as all village leaders of the East travel to the Hedgespire to cast their vote, usually voicing the will of their own village. If the election finishes and no one has secured a majority between the siblings then an Eastern Moot begins. At this time, any sibling, nephew, niece, cousin or grandchild not directly in line for the throne may announce their Contest of Challenge. This allows all descendants of the recently deceased or dethroned Eastmonarch to take part in a tournament to prove their Right to Rule through battle. The challenges are dangerous and potentially deadly, the final match between the winner of the East Moot must duel the reigning Moot Electorate who declared the Referendum. Once a victor is declared and named the Eastmonarch then the rest of the family cannot challenge again until that monarch dies, this is especially true since most challenges can result in death. Although killing the opponents are not necessary, it does happen and yielding ensures you will not receives backing if you challenge again in the next Referendum. This allows the strongest of the bloodline to continue to rule the East.
