Line 1: Line 1:
In the [[Gods' Runes Isles]] all people belong to a motherhouse. As the name implies the line runs through the women. A man can marry or have liasions with woman of another house but he always belongs to his mohterhouse and the children belong to the mother. Children are raised by their [[mother's brother]]. The women own the land and animals living there. The men earn respect by leading men at sea. The motherhouse has a [[Narcheska]] who is the leader, a [[Great Mother]] is the old [[Narcheska]] who rules only if there is no one else old enough. This ruling line is passed down mother to eldest daughter. A woman's body is buried in one of the unused fields set aside for this purpose. After seven years it is plowed and planted and the first harvest of that field is a feast. Almost anything will be done to have a womans body returned to it's motherhouse. There are strict runs over the menfolk that protect the motherhouse when men of other clans visit. Often debts are paid with boys.
