What now for the previous Masters? What will their purpose be?
The Masters still exist.
However, they will only be in charge of their monastery and/or serving in conjunction with other Masters.
The Masters Council decided the following:
* Matters of faith, theology
* Assignment of Masters and other ranks
* Assignment of Knighthood
* Approving/commissioning new ships within the Order's Merchant Fleet
* Acting collectively as figureheads for the Patrons.
The Eorl has taken over these responsibilities.
