The Order of Dominion was a branch of the Order of the Ancients in Persia led by Amorges, a former member of the Persian elite.
History
The Order of Dominion served as the lead 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, they 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. 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 sent the branch to do so. Killing Natakas and destroying their home in Dyme, they took away his and Kassandra's son Elpidios. Amorges would then entrust the baby to Darius II, the son of Artaxerxes I.[1]
