There is a saying amongst the Atlanteans, 'The Ormani are the center of the Atlantean People, but the Lir are it's Heart'. The origins of the Lir are lost in antiquity, but the age of some of the ruins and artifacts found within the Lir Decemvirate suggests that the Lir Atlanteans are easily as old as the Atlantis stock. Whatever the case, the waters of the Lir Decemvirate hold a mystical quality about them and the powers of their people are renown. It is because of this that the Priesthood of Pasiphae has declared the Lir Decemvirate to be its spiritual home. The Priests and Priestesses of the Order spend at least a portion of their lives here and the Atlanteans seem to hold special reverence of Priests that hail from this area.

The Lir Decemvirate is located in the North Sea, Irish Sea, and the Baltic Sea. There waters are cold deep places with a reputation for wildness and storm wracked seas. It is a telling of the hardiness and power of the inhabitants that they can survive and thrive in those waters. Still, the population of the Lirites are rather small...much smaller than the other Decemvirates according to rumors. The Lirites retain a greater number of Priests than is expected and there seems to be a reversal of roles within their Decemvirate. The Priests of Pasiphae there hold many of the leadership roles that the Ephorate normally hold in other places, for all intents and purposes governing the Lir. The Ephorate exists there, but it seems that it merely supports the rule of the Priests. The Lirites seem content with this arrangement.
