Archon is the title of high lords of Kardunash. Each of the Great Houses of Kardunash sends one member (usually the head of the house) to serve on the Kardunashi Council as an archon. The title of “archon” dates back to the days of the Kardunashi Kingdom, when the Sea Lord and Land Lord would hold courts of nobles called archons to help manage their dominions.
The term archon is derived from the Mannic word for “lord” and is roughly equivalent to the Yekari titles of Lord, Duke, Boyar, or Count.
