=== Loshemanesh Laws === Isolationist sentiments grew even stronger after this incident, and throughout the reign of Ishek's son, King [[Loshemanesh]]. He passed several laws imposing harsh punishments for those who created or traded illicit Ages, or induced an outsider to commit a crime. The need for an intelligence organization that could detect such crimes was greater than ever. Loshemanesh was ultimately assassinated by a member of the same sect that had kidnapped his mother, a black mark on the Relyimah's record. The immaturity and weakness of the next king, [[Ji]], resulted in even more religious, political and class division among the people. His successor, King [[Demath]], found it necessary to impose even greater restrictions on interaction with outsiders. The long list of laws forbade outsiders from operating D'ni machinery or using [[Linking Book]]s, among other things. Demath warned the isolationists that Loshemanesh's laws would be strictly enforced, and he doubled the membership of the Relyimah to ensure that a careful watch was kept for signs of illegal activities with outsiders. Demath's enforcement activities, backed by Relyimah intelligence, worked. There were 10 groups convicted of violating the Loshemanesh laws in 4724 DE, though there was no official record made of the involvement of the Relyimah in the cases). By 4752 DE the crime rate had dropped to only three convictions. As the writer [[Besharen]] said, in ''[[Revealing the Unseen]]'' in 5999 DE, "There were stories of dark shadows and mysterious creatures ... for those carrying out such activities ... it was said that the eyes of Demath saw everything while his arms took anyone he wanted." In 4784 DE, the Relyimah again proved their worth. An assassination attempt against King Demath was thwarted by two Relyimah who gave their lives to save him. The two assassins were caught in 4786 DE, and executed by linking them into a death Age -- the first execution of its kind in D'ni history.
