Eŋi-Prëdurëp
The Eŋi-Prëdurëp is a large and deep basin specially designed for the process of reproduction, or Ýyorhïsïb. Modern Eŋi-Prëdurëp systems are almost always fitted with functionalities that aid in sanitation, safety, and accessibility, which usually come in the form of controllable drain systems and multiple washing cycles that direct waste into the sewers. Due to the danger reproductive wastes pose to the health of the Ibrófeneð species, they are almost always built nearby rivers, which reduces the construction distance and the amount of metal tubing needed to prevent excessive seepage into the soil.
With reproduction being an essential role in the Ibrófeneðian biology, the concept of an Eŋi-Prëdurëp has existed since antiquity. During the days of the Heta-Alšewharžar, this usually took the form of a hand-dug hole 3-5 meters deep (compared with 10-12 meters for modern-day ones), in which would be deposited the various Mabëžaró. In these early times, the process of birth was a highly ritualistic behavior; crucially, the caretaker almost always sacrificing one of their feet with Aparï-Dürïža, both as a symbolic Vëtam-like way of giving one's own self up for the creation fo new life, and to deposit the required carbon needed to complete the formation of the legs. However, the uneven nature of the soil itself and the greater exposure to environmental stress caused rampant cases of Ghëža, that is, birth defects. Although most of these were so minor as to not restrict normal bodily movement and mental function, these stressors were still able to routinely cause catastrophic problems with the resultant baby if strong enough.
The modern format of the Eŋi-Prëdurëp was the result of social movements within the Ardunioz Tribe. Their culture revolved around creating a new culture centered on order and perfection, as the old cultures of the Heta-Alšëwharžar were seen as chaotic and weak-willed. A central part of their cultural reformation was targeted towards the spartan nature of these old Eŋi-Prëdurëp, as the aforementioned stressors posed a severe danger not only to birth success rates, but also to the general sense of regularly and predictability that the tribe aimed for.
