Part 502: The Marriage Saga: The Third Trial

That's two trials!

Once again, a season has been skipped due to a lack of interest.



Now that Umathkar has tamed the dragon and won the brass man's favor, it is time for her to become the daughter of the mountain. Your god-talkers say that the mountain must be Kero Fin, mother of Orlanth and guardian of Dragon Pass. What does Umathkar do in preparation for this mystical transformation?

End your attempt to become Queen of Dragon Pass/

Give gifts to the tribe's carls.

Give your magic to Kero Fin.

Go into seclusion for three days and three nights.

Order a divination.

Sacrifice to Kero Fin.

Take no special preparations.

I can only pray the goddess finds me worthy.

This could be risky.

We must learn how to please Kero Fin.

Why should you gift the carls? It is force of arms that makes a queen!

The carls are great supporters of our queen.

Our magic is strong; we should first use it for divination, and then probably give the rest to Kero Fin.

This is all bound up in ancient women's magic, and is bound to come to no good.

And let's get this out of the way.
