I'm going to make a prediction: the Acharites believe that when they die they go to either heaven with Artor or hell (with more focus on hell), the Icarii believe they go to 'the land of their ancestors', and the Avar are assumed to hold the same beliefs as the Icarii.
If any of this is substantially wrong I will be surprised, maybe even pleasantly.
Seas are notoriously unpredictable, what makes the Andeis remarkable in this regard? Is it stormy? Is the coastline prone to undertows or tidal surges? Are the currents bad? All of the above like Capes Horn and Good Hope?
She means it allowed them to cease being nomadic. Real question here is 'was the plough truly unknown before, and if so how the heck was there a civilization at all?'.
Okay, so the Axe-Wielders are not priests. Either that or Douglass has 'taken holy orders' confused with 'made vows', in which case I'm going to laugh at her.
Oh hey, the Avar get something of their own!
... So how did Axis make the cut? Oh yeah, nepotism.
I suppose there's nothing wrong with the term 'Brother-Leader' as such, but it feels very unnatural for a religious order, which generally use parental terms like 'Abbot' or 'Mother Superior' for their leaders. (And now you know where I got 'Father Superior' from.)
So it's also a benediction? Are we actually going to see it used to bless anything? (It also doesn't taste quite like a blessing, but I suppose it could be a matter of missing context, say it's a truncation of a larger phrase?)
