Gergis (died c. 422 BCE), also known as the Herald, was a member of the Order of the Ancients, working as the Order of Dominion's scribe in Messenia, Greece during the Peloponnesian War.

Biography

Gergis was recruited into the Order by Amorges due to his ability of speech, being able to convince people to act against their own interests. Working under him in the Order of Dominion branch, Gergis served as the Order's diplomat and scribe, recording their history and activities that too place throughout. Through this, he became aware of the Order's origin from Egypt and the Order's attempt to dethrone King Artaxerxes I of Persia.[1]

During the Peloponnesian War, Gergis and the branch followed Amorges to Messenia, where they made use of the conflict between Athens' Delian League and Sparta's Peloponnesian War to consolidate their strength. In this capacity, Gergis also recorded the attempts of fellow branches, the Order of Hunters and the Order of the Storm, to eliminate Darius and the misthios Kassandra. [1]

Trivia
