Medieval Hierarchy Novels & Stories

Protected. Highbranch wasn't strict the way Embermoon had been, but hierarchy still existed whether people admitted it or not. Enigmas sat highest naturally, then commonbloods, then omegas beneath them. Not officially. Nobody announced it aloud. But doors opened differently depending on who approached them. Even work shifted around it. Enigmas gave orders more often without realizing they were doing it. Omegas got watched constantly whether they wanted it or not. Commonbloods filled the middle of everything.

It was proof that he was at the peak of the mortal realm. “That…that…that” Abe stammered as he struggled to come up with a reply to the intelligent question that caught him off guard. “It doesn’t matter whose territory this is, Young Prince. What matters is who is here now” the leader coldly snorted. Abe looked startled that the man knew who he was. He was initially planning to use his status to weasel them out of this situation. However, the man knew who he was and didn’t seem to care. And why would the leader care? Although the world didn’t know about the true workings of the Dark Kingdom, he did. He was at the peak of the mortal realm yet he was still in the ‘lower’ rank of the hierarchy.

If only their day off was the same as mine, I would have hung out with them. After that, we went to the assembly hall and went to our respective seats. We were in the rows where soldiers had a General position. Fleet Admirals are sitting in the front. Next are Lieutenant Commanders, and Generals. The three positions were considered the highest military authority. But the Fleet Admirals were considered as the higher-ups. Alpha King is also part of the higher-ups. The middle military ranks were Commanders and Captains. That is the order of the military authority. "His Majesty has arrived!"

"What will you do? What will your family do? Don’t forget, I’m from the Kirk family. Even your father wouldn’t dare to speak to me this way. And you—a mere ant who rose to the line of the next patriarch through nothing but your father’s influence—are threatening me? Evaluate your position carefully, Santigo. Threaten me again, and I’ll make sure all your efforts crumble like ice underfoot." He clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging into his palms. Her words stung more deeply than he cared to admit, the undeniable truth in them striking a nerve. She wasn’t wrong, and that truth cut him deeply. In the Capital’s Greatest Families, hierarchy was everything. The patriarch held the ultimate

"Turn yourself in now and expose Organization V's schemes. If you do that, maybe you'll get some leniency." Eva burst into laughter at his words. "Frederick, are you joking? You? Kill me? Are you sure you can do that?" With a swift movement, she extended her arms, shattering windows in all directions. The entire building began to tremble violently. Frederick's expression turned to shock. "You're an Emeritus Grandmaster?!" Above the Sovereign Grandmaster level was the Emeritus Grandmaster—the pinnacle of power in the Northern Frontier. Those at this level were capable of being a middle-tier force even in regions crowded with formidable warriors. In smaller military zones, they could rise to t

While the other 25 girls from the last dance, were positioned at the training ground, including me. Piper wasn’t here. She was sent to the maid section, as she didn’t pass this level. But was qualified enough to serve in the castle, and not die. “Each chess piece, starting from the Knight to the Rook, in this castle, has a certain number of soldiers assigned to them.” Lady Lydia continued. “The order of hierarchy, determines the amount. However, the beast has the most and we’re all under him.” she explained. “So will the Queen, when she is discovered,”

They have the most amazing cooks. While we eat, I asked about the hierarchy within the vampire kingdom. The vampire ranks are different, yet similar to ours. The royal family is the highest rank. The next rank is to the oldest known families or elders. Then there are the clans and the power rankings within the clans. This can be based on the purity of the bloodline, born versus made, and so forth. Some clans and the royal coven have titles similar to human aristocrats. In fact, the humans got their titles from the vampires. The first documented Duke and Duchess in history were, in fact, vampires.

Until Grayson Callahan moved in. Now there were five ghosts in the building across the street, watching the goings and comings of everyone in this building like a hawk. Hunters' hierarchy, much like their living situations, greatly differed from a witch's or even the vampires. They had their leader, Stravos. But unlike during Kostov's time, he had no right had man. Instead, Stravos got himself five right hand men, and each of those men led a particular faction in the guild. The Opiekun, Efevresi, Oplo, Knights, and Revisor.

He was a wonderful person. A retainer? Nothing special, that's just what we call priests of the Bright Saint. Those at the bottom of the church hierarchy, who are just starting out and just swore their oaths, are called slaves of the Bright Saint. Thralls are the next stage, followed by servitors. Then there are the retainers, and the Confidant is the head of the church. As for common folk, they are simply the fruits of his work-not even slaves, more like toys. He can play with them, break them, toss them aside-except for necromancers, really. Throughout all the kingdoms, necromancers are known to serve the Dark Tempter, and their unclean souls should be sent all the way to heaven, to be dea

Greg replied. “So wait you’ve all got your own government and what are these ranks for what do they mean.” Ebony asks “Yes we run our own government per say it’s more of a pecking order of ranks than anything. To explain our ranks well they establish where we are in terms of experience with matters related to the order. Our ranks are split into three different tiers each having six ranks. Our first tier is our Guard tier. These guys are the guys who escort the members of our strictly religious tier around when they go collect donations and preach the word of the gods. Their ranks from highest to lowest are Champion, Preserver, Guardian, Defender, Chaperone, and Escort. Then there is our Ju
