Organizations in Lumina were drastically different from those in Estia. There were none that Xasha could call a 'Guild' as their makeup did not resemble one. A 'Guild' was an organization of individuals with a shared goal. Xasha never thought about it and called any organization that wasn't a family: a guild.
"The organizations in Lumina are called sects. Which were organizations composed of several families. Strength decides the hierarchy of the families. The family with the strongest members takes control and rules over the other families. But there are usually traditions and customs to follow. Either way, these families pool their resources and join their territories to gain strength together. The biggest settlements in Lumina belong to sects," Obo explained.
Everyone nodded. This wasn't very unusual. In most of the Western Region, this was often the case. There is not only safety but strength in numbers.
