Saunt Edhar

First Appearance and Context

In this account, Edhar is encountered indirectly: avout speak of the concent founded in his name and of an “Edharian chapter” within both the Decenarian and Centenarian maths at that site.

Roles and Affiliations

• Namesake of the Concent of Saunt Edhar, a walled mathic community centered on the clock and tower of the Mynster.
• Namesake of the Edharian Order, an avout order active at the concent.
• Local usage: “Edharian” identifies chapters within the Decenarian and Centenarian maths.

Contextual Notes

• Geographic note: Among the world’s major concents (those with Millennium Clocks and large populations), the Concent of Saunt Edhar lies farthest from the equator at approximately 51.3 degrees north latitude; this position was cited by avout when discussing the ground track of a sky‑borne object.

Notable Mentions in Current Events

• During a formal Voco conducted in the Mynster, the Sæcular Power called multiple avout at once, including members identified with both the Decenarian and Centenarian Edharian chapters.
• Edharian chalk‑hall work: A local Edharian chapter hosted a Lucub where avout checked coordinate tables and prepared ground‑based telescopes for a planned observation of a visitor in orbit; the list explicitly noted Saunt Edhar’s latitude as “fifty‑one degrees and change.”
