Common Customs, traditions and rituals

The Ljarúk Anedú ritual of þil-naa, the vintners caste, originates among the ancient Malóns since before they adopted Útel culture. Members of yþrú-naa, the shamans' caste, observed the archaic version of the ritual on a small island in the river Óf before the caste was transformed into húal-naa, the northern merchant caste.
