Up until recent times, Duladel was ruled over by a republic, and all men were free. Duladen citizens tended to be of Aonic decent, while commoners tended to have the dark skin of Jindos. The division was not perfect, however. Dulas are known for their carefree lifestyle and their flamboyant dress. The country itself consists of steppes and highlands—it provides the only safe passes through the Atad/Dathreki mountains.}}

{{anchor|O}}
{{gld|Odiv| (F) Half of the Derethi oath-bond. Derethi society is stratified in a way that each person is linked back to Jaddeth. Common people swear an oath bond to their priests, who in turn swear an oath bond to the priest higher than them, who swear to those higher than them. Eventually, it all ends with Wyrn. There are two types of oaths: Odiv-Hroden and Krondet-Hroden. In both cases, the Hroden is the lord and the other is the servant. Odiv—the oath usually sworn by priests—is far more binding than Krondet. If one swears to be another's Odiv, then their spiritual salvation depends on how well they serve their Hroden. They are required to do whatever their Hroden commands, even if it is against their own conscience or will.}}

{{gld|Savery|(S) A precious rock. Green in color, it can only be found in caverns far beneath the earth.}}
{{gld|Seaden|(A) Earl Ahan's portly wife.}}
{{gld|Shu-Dereth|(J/F) The name given to the religion founded by Dereth. Shu-Dereth interpreted Keseg's teachings to mean that all men must be united beneath the rule of one nation. Dereth taught that once all men bow before a single monarch, proving their unified nature, God would come to live amongst them. Though Dereth's ideas were originally rejected in his native [[JinDo]], they were embraced by the Fjordell. Wyrn Wulfden the First converted, and so, therefore, did most of his people. Since that time, Shu-Dereth has been the official religion of Fjorden, and has spread to all of the eastern nations. Fjorden's militaristic society stratified and organized Dereth's teachings into an almost martial level.}}
{{gld|Shuden|(J) A young baron in Arelon. Though Shuden is racially [[JinDo]], he is nationally Arelene, where he holds lands and a title. Both were given to his father by King Iadon in exchange for opening a caravan route from [[JinDo]] to Kae.}}
