The Elders of the Brolgadhr all treated Aeryon like their own grandsons. And they were very casual with the Khan.
It was not until Aeryon conquered many tribes that the majesty of the chief was established and the Elder Council become more formal.
But those old Brolgadhr people could still treat the Khan like their own juniors and even the Khan accepted this.
He dares not ignore these old people not because these old people have power over him or have great influence but because to the Khan, these people are truly his family, the people who have sacrificed and believe in him when he first started his first action as chief.
Such loyalty should be repaid, and it is this action that won the admiration of the warriors of other tribes that surrendered to Aeryon
And it is the same thing that made the elders supported the young chief.
