The religion of Shu-Dereth is very regimented, and its structure has been compared to that of a feudal government system.{{book ref\|Elantris\|8}} Followers are expected to obey the commands of their superiors, and priests are expected to give orders rather than shepherd others on the path to faith.{{book ref\|Elantris\|3}} A formal example of this type of relationship is that of the ~~‘’’odivs~~'''odivs, krondets, and ~~hrodens’’’~~hrodens'''. Members of the Derethi priesthood can elect to become a hroden, or master, taking on one or more odivs and/or krondets. Krondet is the less restrictive form of servitude, where the krondet listens to the counsel of his hroden but is not bound to do as told. Odivs, however, must follow the orders of their hroden, essentially serving as a slave. Many choose the role of odiv in order to gain power through their connection to their hroden.{{book ref\|Elantris\|3}}{{book ref\|Elantris\|21}} === Chain to Jaddeth===
