The Seer of Koldia

''This article is KIND OF 'CRAP. That is because it is just half done or something.''

The Seer of Koldia, (often referred to as "The Prince of Koldia" or "The Priness of Koldia" depending on the gender of the individual) is a revered Serenghe who nearly always is entitled to become the next emperor or empress of the Empire of Koldia. They are often known for their high spirituality, and connection to the Serén.

A seer of Koldia is always obviously a Seer, but is also always an Anima Sensei. While Anima Sensei are generally uncommon (about 1 in every 10 Serenghe), Seers are even more uncommon, and so the combination of the two makes even the Serenghe who would theoretically fit the criteria very rare.

However, it is not simply a matter of being picked from a list of candidates. Supernatural forces are what choose the next rightful Seer of Koldia. a marking will appear on the right hand of the chosen individual when he or she turns 35 and thus enters adulthood. It is possible, however, for the next Seer of Koldia to appear before the old one has passed away. Which of them earns the right to rule is determined by the Koldizé Grand Council and among themselves, although once the previous Seer of Koldia has stepped down, it is fully possible for a 3rd Serenghe to be chosen for the lineup after the 2nd Serenghe takes the throne.

Should the would-be Seer of Koldia be slain before the current one abdicates, the same supernatural forces that chose him or her would simply choose another Serenghe. the cycle is not so easily broken unless the "heir" somehow disappears.

The Seer of Koldia for most of The Crusade of Zulera was Koroda Harami Zaklash 1, and was Koroda Harami Zaklash 2 for the ending of that book as well as throughout The Koldian and the Queen.

Perhaps ironically, The Seer of Koldia's position is often referred to as The Princess of Koldia, despite both of the rulers from the first book being male. This is more because of historical events, and because the particular Seer of Koldia that brought fame and prestige to the title was female.
