-== Marriage ==
-Parorans have a system of polyandry (one woman + multiple men). A woman can legally have up to seven husbands, though it’s far more common for her to have only two or three. Upper class women tend to have more husbands. The Queen may have as many as she likes though only one is the official consort.
-Initiating or arranging a marriage is usually an elder's role, and not a feminine role. Marriages usually include symbolic protests from kin and 4 days of seclusion beforehand.
-== Funerary Rites ==
+[[Category:Feralia]][[Category:Parora]]
-Death rites require extensive eulogies. The immediate family of the deceased go into seclusion for a minimum of 2. It’s rare, but sometimes the dividing up property happens at this time. Most commonly that happens several days after. Bodies are burned on a pyre. The ashes that remain are left to scatter on the wind.
-Life after death is different, depending on the person's life, although minor sects say the afterlife is a fiery pit for all souls.
-The afterlife can be reached by the living.
