Harmony Bay runs on a council system built upon an interwoven network of factions, guilds, and interest groups. Representation is largely functional; the needs of the community tend towards several common goals, and a council member is installed to ensure those needs are catered for. As such the council has grown and shifted several times already in its short life, but all through design and collaboration.

Much of the construction and internal supply systems naturally fell under a more martial umbrella, overseen by the Chief Commander. The physical and spiritual health of the citizenry, along with the importance of food and farming, was catered for by the divine elements in Harmony Bay. Religion had a long history of feeding the poor and easing their various ills, and so an Archbishop was appointed. Similarly, the arcanists were already experts of cartography, research, bookkeeping and histories. So a Magus would oversee the important task of making sure this new civilisation would run efficiently and fairly.

Other requirements sprang into being as needed. The vast range of guilds came together to nominate an Artisinal Overseer to speak for them. Trade itself obviously became so vital to survival that an Emissary role was created to ensure needs would be met. And while crime would hopefully be minimal, a separate judiciary would be needed so that it was independent of the executive. To date, a Postmaster and Chronicler have been added to defend the flow of information to and from Harmony Bay to the land back home, ensuring enough coin would come back across the ocean to support them, and to maintain vital communications should the Ancient Expanse hold unforeseen dangers.

Under this governmental structure, Harmony Bay has grown at a pace and establishing a working town took only a matter of months. Settled, it was time to expand, which meant creating a new division of the Town: The Seekers.

Taken from members of many, many guilds and factions, this guild would sit apart and alongside the Council and be responsible for opening up this land to growth. As with all new endeavours, Harmony Bay’s success would attract more and more interest for those wishing to build new lives for themselves, and they’d need safety, land, and resources to do it. It would be the Seekers task to provide this, and ultimately uncover the location of Heaven’s Key.
