"I'll tell you what I can, sure," Eli had caught that hint in Altair's tone. He was a Chiss, but he didn't belong in Chiss society, and he would be an outsider among his own kind if he were to ever spend time among them. Eli at least had an excuse, because he was human.

"The Ascendancy is a Republic oligarchy, and the heads of the government are the Aristocra. There's also the ruling families, each responsible for a different part of Chiss society. And of course, the Syndics, who are kind of like politicians. Mitth'ras'safis is the Syndic who represents the Mitth family, for example."
