(Some work on politics & history)
Idris is drab and relatively devoid of color, reflecting the Idrian people's aversion to any display of "ostentation" in their way of living. Stone walls are whitewashed and clothing is kept a dull grey or tan in accord with a superstition teaching that this can prevent [[Awakening|Awakeners]] from using colors to fuel their magic.{{book ref|wb|1}}
 
The people are taught to be reserved from a young age and "to avoid shameful outbursts of emotion." The model IdrianIdris woman dresses in a way to avoid drawing attention, with hair modestly contained and no makeup;{{book ref|wb|1}} clothing even typically covers the neck.{{book ref|wb|6}}

The kingdom is mostly rural, with most people working as shepherds or farmers. Most people believe in [[Austre]], and it is a tradition that all families with means enough to spare them should send at least one child to work in the monasteries. These monks dedicate their lives to working for the good of the people.{{book ref|wb|2}}
 
Idrians consider the [[Hallandren]] gods to be strange and their religion to be untrue. Though [[Rambleman|Ramblemen]] come through and tell the Idrians of the outside world, many Idrians hold false ideas of the horrors of Hallandren and tell stories of horrible rituals they supposedly carry out there.{{book ref|wb|4}} Although the people of Idris can also become [[Returned]], this is a rare occurrence. The people of Idris, unlike those in Hallandren, will not provide any Returned with [[Breath]], meaning that they die at the end of the week.{{book ref|wb|4}}
 
== Politics ==
They have a monarchal system of government and are ruled by King [[Dedelin]]. Those in the royal family who rule or are potential heirs have the [[Royal Locks]]. The Royal Locks are hereditary hair that can change color according to that person's emotional state, though they can also change the color at will or suppress changes in color with training and discipline. Those with the Royal Locks can also grow them when they want to, but this tires them as if they were using a physical muscle. The Royal family in Idris usually keeps their hair black or brown, as other colors such as red or yellow are considered ostentatious.
 
=== Bevalis ===
The capital of Idris is the city of '''Bevalis'''. Its roads are unpaved, and its houses are stonewalledstone-walled, thatchthatched cottages. The royal palace, which serves as a meeting place and a center of operations for the kingdom, is a single-story building with a courtyard of packed dirt; it is, however, large enough to be considered almost "flamboyant."{{book ref|wb|1}} ItBevalis is a small city in comparison towith others in [[Nalthis]], with a population number of around a few thousand.{{book ref|wb|9}}
 
== Politics ==
From a young age, children are taught to worship [[Austre]], god of colors, by being as unostentatious as possible. Idrians consider outbursts of emotion to be unseemly, and in fact being seen as controlled and disciplined has become almost a form of pride in itself.

While Idrians consider themselves a separate nation from Hallandren, Hallandren considers Idris rebel-controlled land still within its borders. This is the main source of tension between the two nations, a tension that is kept in check during the first twenty years of Dedelin's reign by his treaty with [[Susebron]] that promises to send one of his daughters
to the [[Court of Gods]] to marry the God King.{{book ref|wb|1}} Because King Dedelin fears war, though, he establishes [[Lemex]] as the head of his spy network in [[T'Telir]] and closely monitors the information Lemex sends.{{book ref|wb|9}} Idris' armies are harried by Vendis raids and are no match in general for the [[Lifeless]] army of Hallandren, and [[Vahr]]'s failed rebellion has renewed Hallandren's focus on its enemies. Due to these factors, General [[Yarda]] advises Dedelin to do what they must to delay war at least until winter, when heavy snows can be another of their allies; Dedelin decides to send [[Siri]] to fulfill the treaty and stall the process of war for a little longer. In the meantime, Yarda discusses riling up the remnants of Vahr's rebels and approaching [[Tedradel]] about lending their support.{{book ref|wb|1}}
 
== History ==
Idris was one nation with Hallandren until the [[Manywar]].{{book ref|wb|2}} The separate nation of Idris was formed at the climax of the war when the royal family was rejected by the people of [[Hallandren]] in favor of being ruled by the [[Returned]] and fled to the mountains for safety.{{book ref|wb|1}}{{book ref|wb|5}}
 
Twenty years before the events of the [[Pahn Kahl rebellion]], Dedelin inherited the throne when his father was assassinated. His first official act was to negotiate a treaty with Susebron promising to send his daughter (ostensibly Vivenna, though this was not stated specifically) to the Court of Gods to marry him when Vivenna turned twenty-two, thereby reintroducing the bloodline of the royals into Hallandren's own monarchy.{{book ref|wb|1}}
