The Order of Dominion was a branch of the Persian Order of the Ancients led by Amorges, a former member of the Persian elite. Unlike other branches, it had three Magi who served as Amorges' lieutenants: Gergis and the Immortals.
History
The Order of Dominion served as the leading branch of the Order for centuries, assisting the Persian Kings in subverting various nations and expanding their power. By the reign of Artaxerxes I of Persia, the branch was led by Amorges, a former member of the Persian elite.[1]
During the Peloponnesian War, the Order took advantage of the conflict between Sparta and Athens and were deployed to Messenia, Greece where they attempted to consolidate power amongst the chaos. Using the region as their stronghold, the Order allied with the Spartan army against the Athenians and purchased siege weapons from the Cult of Kosmos.[1]
After their fellow branches, the Order of Hunters and the Order of the Storm, failed to eliminate Darius, his son Natakas and the misthios Kassandra, Amorges personally led the branch in an attack on the trio's home in Dyme, Achaia. There, the Ancients would manage to kill Natakas and kidnap his and Kassandra's son, Elpidios, despite losing several men during the attack, most notably the Immortals, who were slain by Kassandra. However, this provoked the misthios and Darius into traveling to Messenia to seek revenge, where they ultimately killed the remaining members of the branch, including Amorges. Before his death, Amorges reconciled with Darius, his old friend, by revealing the location of Elpidios on an island south of Messenia.[1]
