The Hallandren send offerings to one of the gods when they need something, an attribute like courage or boldness.{{book ref|wb|3}} These offerings are often paintings or other works of art.{{book ref|wb|3}} It is the work of the priests to record what the gods say and think of these paintings.{{book ref|wb|3}} Furthermore, the priests need to arrange breaths so that their gods can continue to live and bless humanity.{{book ref|wb|3}}
== Staff ==
=== Priesthood ===
The Court is the religious center of Hallandren, therefore it has a large amount of priests, while these priests have religious responsibilities they also rule the empire in the name of their [[Susebron|King]] Priests wear intricate robes{{book ref|wb|3}} and some priests, likely the more important ones, wear miters.{{book ref|wb|3}} It seems the more important one is the more intricate ones robe and miter become. The robes of the priests are the colors of their god,{{book ref|wb|3}} with the God King’s priests wearing different colours everyday{{book ref|wb|24}}
The main job of the priests is to care for the [[Returned]].{{book ref|wb|3}} This includes making sure that the Returned have enough food and drinks to enjoy, dressing then etc. The more important priests have jobs like writing down the dreams of a Returned or writing down their review.{{book ref|wb|3}} Each high priest also argues in the arena in order to keep the gods informed of the common people’s opinions.{{book ref|wb|16}}
There seems to be a clear ranking system in the Priesthood, at the top is the High priest of the [[God King]]{{book ref|wb|4}} below him or her are probably the high priests of the Returned.
=== Servants ===
There are two kinds of servants in the Court of Gods.{{book ref|6}}
The first type are the [[Hallandren]] servants.{{book ref|wb|4}} The [[God King]]’s servants are all Hallandren,{{book ref|wb|4}} these servants are dressed in different colors each day,{{book ref|wb|24}} likely because the God King represents all colors. Servants are responsible for many things, from opening doors to delivering food and washing the God King and Queen.{{book ref|wb|6}} It seems the [[Returned]] also employ Hallandren servants, these servants dress in the colours of their god and seem to have much of the same jobs.{{book ref|wb|3}}
The second type are the Pahn Kahl servants.{{book ref|wb|6}} These servants are considered second class by most. They aren’t allowed to serve the god king, and most of them have worse jobs then the [[Hallandren]]. The Pahn Kahl servants have to wear brown.{{book ref|wb|6}}
=== Soldiers and Awakeners ===
Both of the walls are patrolled by soldiers.{{book ref|wb|55}} The Returned palaces are also guarded by soldiers,{{book ref|wb|29}} though these do not have weapons.{{book ref|wb|21}}
The priests have access to many [[lifeless]]{{book ref|wb|47}}{{book ref|wb|3}}
Some of the priests are [[awakening|awakeners]] and there are some very skilled awakeners among them.{{book ref|wb|15}}
