Disclaimer: Not mine
Representatives from the ten planets would meet every year on a neutral planet, Tala. Their meeting times were based on the passing of a year on Tala after there had been disagreements as to who’s year they should follow. The planet was a long deserted outpost of the Ancients where no other group had since taken up residence and the abandoned buildings provided the perfect venue for the meetings. At their early meetings one group had tried to argue that they should be allowed to live there, however they were quickly refused and it was determined that none of the groups would be allowed to have people permanently living there, thus ensuring that it remained a neutral meeting ground.
The gatherings were attended by representatives from the Athosians, the Genii, the Hoffans and seven other cultures. The meetings were intended to be a forum where they would be able to discuss the movement of the Wraith, the discovery of new plants that could be consumed or used for medicinal purposes, the location of other resources and the negotiation of political arrangements and alliances. In reality however, the talks were dominated by political discussions. Medicinal discoveries and other resources were too precious to share freely and representatives would viciously break alliances, climbing over old allies, if they thought that they could achieve a better one.
Still the group met every Talan year and each representative trusted all nine of his counterparts. For although they would fight over trade, crops and political alliances, they knew that the real focus and purpose of the meetings was sharing information about the Wraith, even if it only appeared to be a small matter discussed in passing.
