Khajian
Patient and focused, any person raised with Khajian ideals is certain to see through to the end any task she starts, even if it winds up taking a lot longer than she initially thought. This serenity leads to Khajian being incredibly willing to understand the motives of other beings; honor and dishonor are more concrete concepts to them than good and evil morality.
Far to the east, across the sea, lies a land unexplored and virtually unknown to the continent to Palamydia. Travel to and from these lands is extremely difficult – only by boat – and contact and trade has been minimal. The people of the Khajian Islands have lead simple, yet beautiful, lives with their ways and knowledge changing little in the past thousand years. It would seem that the whole of Khajian Islands simply does not know of, or even care about, the deities, and instead worship individual aspects of nature – for them, each tree, rock, mountain, and stream has a spirit that is venerated.
The culture of the Khajian places one's honor above all else, especially family honor – to them, the family name is borrowed, and will be returned when one passes on to the next life. It is the responsibility of an individual to maintain the honor of the family name, and not shame it, while they use it.
