Runen {RuneWay}
Runen is a Vilegraven/Hemblick Culture, That is the basic building blocks of the Runen culture but they do have there own ways as well.
Unlike it's sister country VerNay Runeway has never had a major Koroblin influce, Staying a little closer to it's Aster and Necrin roots. But as much as they have roots from indigenous groups they have also have tried to branch out from them.
Most of those who live in Runeway live on the egdes of the country, by the sea or by the many rivers and lakes in the land. Sense the middle of Runen way have many high and rough montains the least amount of people live there. Beacuse of this closeness to Water and sea; Much of Runen's culture and life revoles around water.
Runeway has been in many wars Sense it's founding, unlike most Hemblick countries Runeway is not a passive country. And living threw so much war, poverity and hardship the Runen people have become strong and cold to outsiders as a whole.

Before the financial fall of Runen that happened durring the "Border war" Romance was a simple thing where people just feel in love. But durring and after that war being able to pay both families for loseing a worker had become imporant. Families take a lot of time of making deals wth each other to let the happy couple move out and start their own life.
Relationship Ideals
people idealized having blance in relastonships, to them it only seems natural for a fishermen to marry someone who studies magic. To fishermen marring each other is seen as too much as one thing. Keep in mind that Runen people do not care about the gender of people in a relationship but rather the jobs or skills of people in that relastionship to not be the same.
