The Order of Seafarer Ibenis is named for the "Ferryman of Souls," a figure in the mythos of the Ilviran faith who conveys the souls of the departed back to the creator at Araka-Kalai for rebirth. The order assists pilgrims traveling between western Hârn and Araka-Kalai, where Ilvir is said to dwell. It also transports Ivashu, the god's bizarre creations, from Misyn to the Pamesani arenas in the Thardic Republic and Rethem. Itinerant clerics of the order seek to convert the living but also collect lost or wayward spirits to be sent to Ilvir to be cleansed and recycled as one of his many creations.
