A Place of Ancestry

Ancestral Culture
Pantheon - Crossroads
Associated Passage: The Way of Words
Some individuals, communities, and cultures take great pride in their collective advances. Keeping detailed records of births, deaths, marriages, and family obligations to one another become critical to these peoples, measuring value based on familial continuity and the collective unity they have cultivated.A culture that reveres and honors its family will most likely have deep roots and broad branches. The very need to remember, to record all the twists and turns, to remember the actions, and the intentions of the revered ancient ones leads many to the Way of Words, wherein the keys to the future lay buried with them. The Ancient Ones have always borne the culture aloft, elevating the individual by raising the reminders of their plaintive ways. Within their community, city, and even nation, there is a great likelihood they will find they are somehow interconnected. That interconnection stems also from the close relationship between walking this world and traveling into the Crossroads.
