On Ispar, the Orts were a group of native Aluvian rebels who had been living underground - figuratively and often literally - for some years, who wished to free Aluvia of all Viamontian influence. They culled their name from the Old Roulean "oraete," which referred to the leftovers of a traditional legionary victory feast ,commonly distributed to the poor. They were most active during the rule of Queen Alfrega. Amongst those most noted for their support of the Orts were Harlune and Hendac Tharesun
