A person responsible for running the Offices of Excellency will hold the rank of a Prime, which is a high noble title. Only an oora can hold the title of Prime, and if a gole wishes to promote a commoner to the position, they must first give them an oora title, most commonly an honorary title such as broga.

Being close to the gole, primes are some of the most powerful and influential people in the realm and frequently live like golen themselves, having their own mini version of a royal court.

On paper, a Prime is a lifelong, but not a hereditary position. In practice, the position tends to be passed down from one generation to the next. A new gole will sometimes replace several courtiers with those from his Mōrtoh's Office of Elders, although this is usually frowned upon. This was a more common practice in the court of the [[Dolysoh dynasty]], where each new gole tended to replace a lot of the court with new people.

This was a more common practice in the court of the [[Dolysoh dynasty]], where each new gole tended to replace a lot of the court with new people, which created power struggles and scheming between the court and Mōrtoh elders. In some cases this even resulted in [[Gorōntoh_Kōtele#As_Forod.27s_aide|assassinations]].

When the Prime is dismissed, they are usually given a reward from the gole for their services. Former Primes have a good chance of landing a Grand Veraa title in the Court of Ooron.
