About this Page These expanded lore pages are intentionally placed on sub-pages so as not to overwhelm the average player with an excess of information. However, we recognize that some players will want more depth. These pages will provide links that would be useful for such expansion.

Quick History: The Jurchen are the ancestors of both the Huns, and the Jurchen people. After the kingdom of Brenna broke the Hunnic empire, most of the Huns retreated to the high mountain on which Khonzhou now lies. Some Hun tribes are said to have gone to both Fendhal and Tenysia, with Khonzhou being nominally considered the leader of this blended Eurasian east coast. The tribute of rice and beans is in fact little more than a long-established trade route for the exchange of staple food goods. There is no real established eastern empire at the time of the sim's start date.

Ritual Sacrifice: The Jurchen do practice ritual sacrifice but they do it by throwing themselves on their sword, not by opening their bellies.
The Natami: The stone on which every house is established. If the Natami is stolen, then the house is without honor and defeated. This doesn't happen much anymore, and is a tradition that comes from the Jurchen side of the Jurchen-Hunnic people.
Banners: The 8 banners are The Blue Wheel banner, the White Lotus banner, the Red Sun banner, the Laughing Monkey banner, the Coiled Cobra banner, the Jade Dragon, etc.
