The Farseers are a group of judges who control the happenings in Ohnk. Their law and rulings are rigid and unbending. They use divination magic to deem if a crime has been committed and who is responsible. The people of Ohnk hold them above all else, as they are the law, and what they say goes, and in a rigid and lawful society like Ohnk, they are seen as the most virtuous of them all.
However, there are murmurs that the Farseers have long since been corrupt, placed in their spot by those who would benefit from their appointment. They are then bought off, allegedly, to help “settle” disputes between rivals, with the heavier coin-purse getting their way. Such talk does not pass in Ohnk, however, as the Farseers are seen as unbendable and incorruptible, clean and honest to a fault.
