Message: <blockquote data-quote="ShaggySpellsword" data-source="post: 2487826" data-attributes="member: 17626">Your people are camped on the southeast edge of the Blade Desert, two-days ride from Taer Shantara, headed to a meeting place in Zephyr Keep.  This morning, before the warband has begun preparing for the day's ride, the horns of the watch blow four short blasts.  The call of the Keepers it has been named amongst the Valaes Tairn.  There will be no riding this day.As you all come forth into the gathering circle outside the cheif keeper's tent you notice the rest of the band watching you, whispering behind your backs.  The Chief Keeper of the Past of your warband, Shyr Cydi, approaches each of you in turn and delivers the same message."Today the warriors will construct the tystol os eindri cer and build up the ancestor fire with-in it.  Your day to contact your ancestor has come, and you must prepare in the way you see fit.  At sunfall, come to the ancestor fire, and the journey that will make you a full member of the warband will be made clear to you."OOC:  [SBLOCK]As Valaes Tairn youth you all know that the way you spend this day will largely determine your success or failure in your adult-hood rite of passage.  The Tystol os Eindri Cer is an elven building that doesn't have a good translation into common.  The best translation (that does this important structure very little justice) is "Coming of Age Hut."[/SBLOCK]</blockquote>
