The Kami no Kotoba (Magia:髪 の 言葉, Lit. Word of Heavens), often shortened to just the Kotoba is the national government of Magia Regnum, a Theocratic Magical Girl Timocracy in Dacia, Sparkalia. The Kotoba is composed of three distinct branches: legislative, executive, and judicial, whose powers are vested in the Tate-Shōsū, the Gaidansu and the Seigi Kaikan respectively.
Gaidansu
The Gaidansu (Magia:指導; lit. Guidance) is the executive branch that manages the operations of Magia Regnum and oversees the worship of the Ōrumaiti. The Gaidansu is lead by the Haimajika which is the most senior position in Magia Regnum. The Haimajika is the only individual who is able to speak with the Ōrumaiti on a regular basis and is invested with significant religious influence and domestic policymaking. The Haimajika also represents the Ōrumaiti to its own people, and represents the nation to the rest of Sparkalia. The Haimajika also fulfills many ceremonial duties mostly dedicated to the Ōrumaiti.
The Haimajika is chosen among those of the Gaidansu who, in the eyes of the Ōrumaiti, represents the purest and most ideal magical girl as well as the one who has the most aptitude to hear and communicate with the Ōrumaiti. The Haimajika serves until either disability, death, or unforeseen circumstances otherwise depose of them. When a new Haimajika is chosen, the members of the Gaidansu will meditate in insolation until the Ōrumaiti reveals herself to the one chosen. Typically this is a member of the Gaidansu, it is not unheard of for the Ōrumaiti to call upon a worthy magical girl from beyond the organization.
The Current Haimajika is the Magical Girl "Seeker Bell" Isami Amari who is one of the oldest magical girls in Magia Regnum and has reigned for over 100 years.
In addition to the Haimajika the Saishi also make up the Gaidansu. The Saishi are the primary spiritual leaders as well as the principal official advisory body to the Haimajika. The Saishi do not have any collective executive powers or functions of its own, but in regards to religious affairs the Saishi regularly are consulted and teach as authorities.
Tate-Shōsū
The Tate-Shōsū (Magian:縦小数 lit. Denominated Few) is the unicameral legislature of Magia Regnum.
Seigi Kaikan
The Seigi Kaikan (Magian:正義 会館; lit. Justice Hall) is the body which oversees Magia Regnum's contract enforcement as well as the protectors of the nation.
