Lore / Realms of Bosom - Brestocratic Feudalism

“The value of your life is equal to the size of the Soft that our Gorgeous and Joyful bestowed upon your shoulders.“

Brestocratic Feudalism is an established social system of the Realms of Bosom; society is divided into four classes, which is held by a rationale chain: “Planks mine for the Yeomams; Yeomams smith for the Muneles; Muneles fight for the Queens; Queens make the Allmother proud”.

At the top are the Royal Dynasties of Diarchy; the White Queens as the supreme leaders of the Milkland, and the Platinum Generals as the prime defenders of Her Heart and Mountains – it is what they are born for, it is their Fate, to be the most perfect daughters of Meora.

The lands of Her Gorgeousness, which are under the Protection of the Realms of Bosom, are all in Responsibility of the White Queens first of all – it is they who ultimately decide and ensure Bosomian prosperity, as well as seen accountable by the rest of the Meority for internal failures. Although the Queens are the official leaders of the Realms, today it is the machine more complex than ever before and require attention impossible for just two individuals, and thus nowadays they act primarily as representatives in international politics and manage inner family affairs as Matronas, mostly as the Lady Paramount in subinfeudation of Milkland, by subdividing and assigning the Duchies between family members of the royal lineages who will rule and bear own Responsibility over assigned lands as Duches.

Below are the Munelity: families of Marchioness, Grafiness, Viscountess and Baroness, with Matronas as the head Ladies of a family, entrusted with municipal fiefdoms within Duchies, and answerable to their Suzerain Lady Duches. Countless Munele families are of Tofar and Mawl origin of course, many of whom are direct descendants from the Age of Crumbling. Then there are the numerous houses of Kovari, Erinar, Lerrels, some Dova, Griffaurs, several Runiarns deep to the south, and even a few notable Ardem Va who became known for openly rejecting Thighology and worshiping the Milk.

With a fist of steel but a grip of velvet, Muneles are obliged to master the art of governance and later act as the top public or military officials for the family and fiefdom under their jurisdiction. Public-oriented responsibilities include achieving the objectives assigned for their house by the Duches, ensuring that the obligations of Bosomian subjects are met, collecting taxes and maintaining order, providing honest and fair administrative and civil services to the public, regularly participate in Breast Leisures and Dairy Duty, and managing further land tenure for the flatter-class families when necessary.

The most salient and powerful families of the Realms form the League of Dames instead of serving in fealty of the Duches. There, much wider administrative functions are performed and majority of the Realm regulations and decrees are made. Their Matronas hold representative seats as well as governmental titles in the Mammary Court, but Bonfure-Terfar and Medali hold eight seats each.

Arranged marriages for various mutual benefits are common today to uphold the status of Munelity, but to receive it nobly, each member of the claimant family shall first not only display apparent value to the Allmother in the corporeal form of their Soft, but must also achieve triumphant accomplishments worthy of such a bust, thereby proving own commitment to Her expectations and accepting their destined earthly duties.

The accustomary greeting tradition among High-born Bosomians is by grasping each other’s left breasts with their right hands, and parting by grasping each other’s right breasts with their left hands. A gesture of gratitude is expressed by squeezing own bust with both shoulders. A bow, displaying the extent of one’s cleavage line to a sistren of a lesser status, is a gesture of dominance and command. Slapping another’s breasts is an act of insult and contempt. The Flatter-born citizens are obliged to look straight at the Soft of the superior ladies, constantly reminding themselves of their own inferiority and obedience; thine gaze shall not go lower or higher, unless you are ordered to.

The third Class are the families of Yeomams. Some are just remarkable scientists and artisans, but the largest of them range from owners of small manufactories to enterprise administrators. The descendants of these families are permitted to apply for prestigious professions of law enforcement, pilots, naval officers, servants and stuff of the Munelity, as well as for the positions of supervisors, principals and judges above flatborn workers, and many other similarly essential and dignifying professions. All Yeomams are liable subjects in fealty of the local Munele house, and can ask to be awarded with an estate or a bit of land into own Responsibility. However, to retain their current positions, properties and status as Yeomams, they hardly go against the demands from above, fearing the loss of precious everything, but, with great genes and influence, they can be accepted into a Munele family through marriage, or even rise up independently. Yeomams do participate in Dairy Duties, even for each other, but not as regularly as Muneles, and usually it is less formal, not even worthy of a luxurious uniform.

At the bottom are the flatborn, the Planks. A serf class, individually as replaceable as the origin of their name, and can only contribute to the Realms on foundational jobs: farmers, miners, factory worker, maintenance worker, construction workers – the drudging labor that keeps this Great Nation functioning. Many idioms came indirectly from the daily life of the flatborn, such as “Ever-white lips” meaning a persons who works very hard, or “She has never tasted milk” which is the opposite – an utmost lazy person.

They are the only class that is not allowed to own many types of property, have very limited freedom of movement and employment, and Planks residing in Fortress Cities are forbidden to take up arms even against the Hellish Spawn, as their lives are considered to be... unworthy of death in battle. The only rights a Plank can keep are the rights to be grateful when rewarded for work, to stare at the Soft of superior Ladies, and to remember how small is her own value to the Reams and our Allmother.
