The Twelve Orders

There are Twelve Orders, which may appear in countless forms for magical, practical and sacred work. The complete set of Twelve accommodates all human aspirations. Each of the Orders has its own domain and its own place in the Holy City, but there are connections between them, symbolised by the octahedron.

"So the king instructed certain members of each Order, and taught them a sacred duty:

Remember the centre, the source of the Twelve,
Remember the Twelve and how they are linked,
Know how to call upon each of the Twelve."
from The Legend of the Twelve Orders
