TEXT: The Farises
  The best among the Guard will eventually be promoted and become part of Tusmit's elite medium cavalry 
  force: the Farises. The Farises are mounted warriors, experts in horseback combat. They are trained in the 
  use of the shortbow and the lance among other weapons. Farises are respected throughout Tusmit. These 
  troops are loyal to the Pasha and must dedicate their lives to the protection of the nation. Because of the 
  rigorous training of these men and the countless sacrifices they must make, they are highly regarded by the 
  population and enjoy a certain prestige that other soldiers can only envy them. Although despite their 
  prestigious stature among the folk of their homeland, the Farises of Tusmit are looked upon with some 
  contempt by their more noble Ekbirian counterparts. 
  Tusmit adopted the Faris following the Ekbirrian occupation of Tusmit. Since then the Tusman and 
  Ekbirrian Faris look at each other as rivals to be outdone.
