Rekettan Crown

This role is shared among the three kings and queens of the rekettan Empire. Each is subjected to their own small territory, but still answer to the Empress herself. Occasionally they are regarded as Lords, or their palaces as Noble Houses, but they are of High Noble worth and not to be confused entirely with the more common idea of Lord - Reketta. Instead they are to look after and adjust circumstances to regions, rather than ideas and institution. The empress weighs their responsibilities first in a regional sense.   As Reketta aren't directly Patriarchal or Matriarchal, King or Queen partially reflects on how the heir was chosen, and who they partnered with. So a King is never inherently more powerful than a Queen by nature alone, but rather by who was chosen or if the other was taken in from a source outside the palace bloodline. Regardless, both often act as if on near parity in the majority of cases, and it curtesy to not show power over the other in such a crass or demeaning way even if the subjects may know an underlying power to one or the other.   The following Houses are the only ones of crowned High Nobles in the imperial history:  

• Crown Rum: Amber Isle & majority of the Kayotian Bloodmarsh 
• Crown Salt: South-east (The "bay shoe" region of Kayotia)
• Crown Dragon: Mid-western Kayotia

  Finally, the empress is technically her own form of a crowned leader, holding the reigns to the north most desert regions and the capital of Glysia.
