Myrmidia

Symbol of the Cult of Myrmidia

Isabella Giovanna Luccelli is the raven-haired woman who currently serves as the Ultima Aquila (or Aguila Ultima in Estalian), the high priestess of the Cult of Myrmidia and the ultimate authority for the templars of the Order of the Eagle.[1a][2a][3b]

Luccelli is from Tilea herself, but has sworn faith to the chief Myrmidian temple in Estalia, and re-established the cult's high council at the Archecclesiatium of Myrmidia in Magritta, causing no small amount of controversy. She has taken this course of action in the hope that it will help ease tensions between the rival factions of the cult, and is currently seeking to calm the constant rivalry between the Myrmidian faithful of Tilea and Estalia over the location of the birthplace of the mortal incarnation of Myrmidia in the Old World.[1a][2a][3b]

Despite many Tileans regarding the move as a humiliation, they still consider Luccelli the legitimate head of the Cult of Myrmidia, but they want her to move the centre of cult authority from the Archecclesiastium to the Great Temple of Myrmidia in Remas.[3a][3b]

In the Empire the most important members of the Cult of Myrmidia are far from the concern of most local Myrmidians. Luminaries such as the immensely influential Ultima Aquila, or El Lider Glorioso Juan Federico, the high grandmaster of the Order of the Righteous Spear, are nothing more than complicated names with little local relevance. It is the leaders within the Empire's borders that matter most, the people that will make the day-to-day decisions that affect others' lives, such as the current Eagle of the North, Lorenzo di Marco.[2a]
