However, after the founding of the new dynasty, they had hidden away again, from the on, this enormous organization remained hidden, silent in the shadows. Its name means "incoming abyss" or "approaching abyss". "Lin Yuan Pavilion vanished at peace and prosperity, raised up at chaos and turbulence"Lin Yuan Pavilion gathers all gifted people, from officials and nobles, down to small merchants and servants, countless exceptional individuals throughout the country.

Lin Yuan Pavilion has 5 leading members who hold on to a token each, which when put together will form the Lin Yuan Emblem. The Lin Yuan 5 will come together during times of chaos and turbulence and vote for who they think is deserving of the Lin Yuan Emblem.
