The Council of Eliria, which is nowadays also known as the King's Council or His Riverine Majesty's Council, is a formal body of advisors to the King of Elwynn, which advises His Riverine Majesty concerning the exercise of His powers. In the range of its functions the council is usually more important than the Royal Parliament with regard to the running of the Elwynnese Union.
