It was, in centaur oral history, done for a banished centaur who was given the outsider title like the PCs had, and he did a task for their shaman involving leaping inside a giant worm and cutting his way out to leave his sins symbolically in the worm. This created precedent for the PCs to do the same thing. It was a huge pain in the ass for the PCs to take that road as it wasn't just that simple, but in the end it was a lot more satisfying than simply slaughtering the centaurs and beating the secrets out of them.</blockquote>
