Editing Winged Lancers (section)

==Overview==
Every spring Gospadar villages and towns throughout Kislev muster a garrison of Winged Lancers to fight in Kislevs armies, which consist primarily either young men and grizzled veterans who became Lancers and liked the job. A fair few Winged Lancers are the sons of Boyars who are using the Lancers as a means to give them a start in politicking and actual battle, but being a noble or son of one is not a requirement to join the Lancers. Being part of the Winged Lancers is considered an honour and their is a deep sense of national pride with joining them as they are considered the defenders of Kislev and a symbol of the countries resilience. The rite to become a Winged Lancer is more ritualistic than a test of how good of a Lancer you would make as initiates are given five days to hunt and kill an eagle with nothing but a bow, five arrows and a knife. The feathers of this eagle are then used to make the famous wings that the Lancers wear. However it has been known for some boyar sons to be helped by professional hunters when finding and hunting the eagle and accusations and investigations of this can end Winged Lancers careers in shame.
