Eternal Flame of Miaren is a Navarr Imperial title created following an announcement in Winter 380YE by the Civilian Commissioner. The position of Eternal Flame is a sinecure in Miaren, requiring minimal responsibility but offering a regular income of crystal mana.

Responsibilities

The Eternal Flame has no particular responsibilities; they simply receive a bounty of crystal mana from the Chamber of the Flame. If the Chamber itself were to be threatened in any way, it would be the responsibility of the Eternal Flame of Miaren to deal with those threats - but also to deal with any opportunity to expand the sinecure, or to make any decisions about its operation.

Powers

The Eternal Flame is an Imperial title that grants custodianship of a sinecure.

Bounty of Mana

The Eternal Flamereceives an income of 9 crystal mana each season.

Selection

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

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

Removal

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

The Keeper can be revoked by the Navarr national assembly, the General assembly or the Assembly of Nine.

History

The Eternal Flame was completed shortly before the 381YE Spring Equinox.

Chamber of the Flame

Amid the ruins of the fallen Terunael city of Seren, in Serenael, lies the beauty and wonder of a new, Navarr, city. During some recent explorations of an area on the outskirts, a hidden cave was located behind a waterfall on the northern-western side of the old city. Further investigation discovered an eerie flame glowing in the cave, one that gave of a dim, pleasant illumination by no amount of heat. Some scholars are already suggesting it might in some way be tied to rumours of a "golden sun" in the lost Terunael city of Emrys.

With the careful positioning of mithril mirrors, the light of the cool flame has been refocused into the pool of water that occupies the southern third of the cave, and a bounty of crystal mana has been gathered from its depths.
