Fahraean

Long before my journey brought me to Fahraea, I had met many of her people traveling to the far reaches of not only Grara but Breharan. Some are gone from their home for less than a season while others travel for years.

The Far County

The Graran county of Fahraea is populated primarily by a people who migrated there from the far side of the country. They brought with them customs and traditions that - although changed by time and circumstance - they hold to the present.   As people who live in one of the counties furthest from the power centers of the nation, they - like those of Ostad - are more concerned with their immediate neighbors than the nation as a whole and have - on the whole - not adopted much of the common cultural elements of Grara.

To See The Sky

In order to become an adult each Fahraean must make a journey to the edge of Breharan and perform the Rite of Returning. This was a lot simpler before the migration inland and while the shortest route from the county to the edge is well-worn, many choose not to take it, instead opting to travel further to perform the ritual.   This journey spreads them across Breharan and makes them well-known, well-recognized, and - often - well-received, often benefiting from the hospitality of the people they encounter during their journey.
