Overview

Glass Point Cove is a secluded beach in southern Uccelini. It was commissioned by Dalibor Marek do Saverio Von Temeschwar in summer 381YE, using an Imperial Wayleave. The position is a sinecure, requiring minimal responsibility but offering a regular income of crystal mana.

While the title is officially "Custodian of Glass Point Cove", many Sarvosan citizens prefer to call it the "Glass Custodian", drawing parallels with the Jade_Custodian who oversees the Wellspring of Jade in northern Foracci.

Responsibilities

The Custodian has no particular responsibilities; they simply receive a bounty of crystal mana from Glass Point Cove. If the Cove were to be threatened in any way, it would be the responsibility of the Custodian to deal with those threats. Likewise, if any opportunity relating to the cove presented itself, they would make any decisions needed to take advantage of it.

Powers

The Custodian of Glass Point Cove is an Imperial title that grants custodianship of a sinecure.

Bounty of Mana

The Custodian receives an income of 9 crystal mana each season from Glass Point Cove.

Appointment

The Custodian is a League national position appointed by the Senate. Under normal circumstances it will be appointed by unanimous vote of the League senators.

Because this is a national position, the title can only be held by a League citizen.

The Custodian has tenure and serves until they die, step down or are revoked.

The Custodian can be revoked by the General Assembly, the League national assembly, and the Assembly of Nine.

Glass Point Cove

The exemplar Avigliana di Sarvos first mentioned the powerful mana flows along the bluffs of Glass Point, but it was Savosan fleet captain Richardo Glostari and chairman of Red Raven Holdings Giacomo Corvinscuro who first located a significant mana source in the vicinity.

Glass Point Cove is a secluded sandy beach leading to a cove with luminescent veins of crystal growing through the rock, formed by natural flows seeping through the rocks and being shaped by the tide and winds. A lavish mithril mesh has been established in several parts of the cove to help form crystals in a more accessible manner, and to avoid permanently despoiling the beautiful location. The expensive alterations to the cove were funded by the Signeur of the Compagnia di Rossi, Dalibor Marek di Saverio von Temeschwar, using an Imperial Wayleave.

Work was made more difficult by the fact the cove was inaccessible from land - and indeed due to the many rocks and the shallow water proved impossible to approach by all save the smallest boats. Despite the relative difficulties of getting to the cove, there were some signs that Richardo and Giacomo were not the first people to see the possibility of harvesting crystal mana here - but there was little evidence that anyone had been in the cove for several years.
