I forgot to include some of the lore for the tribes:

The Creation

This applies for all the tribes. All of them believe that animals came first before humans, and that there were twenty-four tribes of animals, each standing for a symbol of the greek alphabet. Each ancient tribe has two heirs in modern times: a human one and an animal one. There are sort of "prophecies" for each two heirs of the different tribes, much like Jacob speaking to his sons about them. If you are unfamiliar with this, here's what he says to his son Naphtali, so you can get an idea of it:

"Napthtali is a doe set free

that will give birth to beautiful fawns."

Genesis 48:21

Each tribe had a leader and some other ranks, and they all had personality traits associated with them. Some tribes did not get on well with others. Eventually they all split into three general groups: Druids, Guardians, Shadowbringers. Different groups, some following only part of a group's original beliefs, some missionaries to spread Christianity and the Guardian system, and some sea-mag's (pronounced like no-maj, but with "sea").

I will elaborate on those... More in the next book.

I'm considering these name for the Druid Overseer (leader):

Ingress

Thessalia

Skarkianta

Let me know what you think.

(will elaborate on this more in a bit, stay tuned for edits to this message)
