Alta Decorum

Alta Decorum is a Bafigronian tradition, carried by believers of Helena and Helios.  

Cultural Meaning

While at earlier days, the tradition was used as a show of power at days of war, the tradition has carried to be enacted also in days of peace to radiate power and stability of the commanders to the common folk.   Now days the high ranking clergy and socialites are strutting through the main road leading from the temple of Helios to the temple of Helena, wearing silk sashes, and long garments inked, woven or tailored to show mythological stories, yellow rays of sun, or blue jays, as the banners of armies and noble houses turned to banners of faith made to vestments, garments and artisanal legacy, echoing the timeless long tradition of rituals and celebrations.   Twice a year, at Kord holidays, former stormlords and thundergaurds join the march, opposite direction to the march route of the Alta Decorum, in full armaments, their armors are bedazzled with red and blue gemstones creating shapes of a shield crossed by four lightnings, as to honor the old cultural tradition.   Since the growing need of fine craftsmanship and haberdashery rose, multiple schools of arts had gained significant sponsorship from wealthy observant benefactors.
