The human tribes of this world have also adapted their hunting instruments to replace tribal wars and conflicts that so often plague similar feral worlds, with all disagreements and fights instead settled with displays of instrumental prowess. The best warriors of each tribe play their instruments, with the winner being selected by the Elder Orchestrates. The Elder Orchestrates are the priests of Saran who, through careful manipulation from Imperial Missionaries, maintain Saran faith and ensure it does not deviate from the 'star angel's' words that instruments are manifestations of His Voice. Saran has a small tithe owing to its feral world classification, with the best musical warriors being conscripted by the Imperium to serve as Ecclesiarchy musicians for sermons, Guard regiments as regimental bands, and well off nobles or Rogue Traders looking for the best talent to enhance their prestige. The world has also attracted the attention of those who follow Slaneesh, and although the Elder Orchestrates monitor the population as much as they can, occasionally a musical warrior becomes too obsessed with perfecting sound and either slaughters others for instrument parts or absconds with cultists to fight for the Prince of Excesses's attention. While the Imperium doesn't rate this corruption as a real threat, the Inquisition occasionally uses Saran as a training ground for Interrogators to relatively safely test their skills in discerning heresy from normal (if not pompous) behavior.
