	The rhemoraz is particularly revered as it the kill needed to obtain adult hood. Other animals are respected for power and strength, along with speed.

Only men that have passed the trial of the worm, may take a woman for a wife, which tends to encourage the warriors to attempt their trials during their later adolescence and weeds out the weak , slow, and stupid at early ages.<br>		The rhemoraz is particularly revered as it the kill needed to obtain adult hood.
