  Tostnad'a Sten, which translates as 'home of the Tostnad clan', is a Koushan Mai village in southern Serukis. It is hidden in a valley between two mountains in the Teeth, and has a population of around forty individuals. The village is subjected to snow and ice for much of the year, and its inhabitants are a wary, hardy people.   The village was built to protect the House of Silence, a temple built to worship Seiran, the goddess of secrets and stars, which stands at the centre of the settlement.

With only forty people, they must make a connection somewhere outside their village to avoid inbreeding - do they have traditions around that?

Yes, they have connections with other Koushan Mai villages in the area. I will have to think about traditions and things. :D
