Chapter 6 - Anthropic pedagogy in the world of petra

Anthropic family

1. The world and its responsibilities usually fall on that of the father and the clan or family they heil from. 2. This would be how most people with abilities lived their life, growing up as a child raised by a mother trained by the father. 3. Parenthood was often young during the early years of Petra, so as an Anthropic, your parent would be roughly sixteen. 4. So, if the father proved himself to his clan or family by coming home alive from war, he would teach his son about his powers so he can fight too.

5. Often, in the early days of Petra, a woman and a man who grew up together would marry and have children before sixteen. 6. Giving birth was not easy, an early birth or complicated birth could kill both woman and child, those aren't the only reasons. 7. Often, the birth would be successful, with a one in three percent chance of either mother or child dying at birth.

8. Anthropic Women and men alike on Petra are laced with hardship, half of all men born die within eighteen years of life, and almost all men die after age twenty-five. 9. Women, almost like an instinct, give birth to more men during trying times but fewer women, roughly one to four ratio. 10. Peace is only a dream to those in the east who fight an endless war; in the west, there are family divides and clan rivalries, these disable the economy, and arable land is destroyed, causing famine.

War

1. Both the west and east parts of the anthropic kingdoms know it; the east fights, and the west funds with mercenaries and money. 2. The East has only known peace through raids, not campaigns; after the war of Arlems river, the west has been in a stalemate, each side sending raiding parties. 3. When your town is not being raided you have nations quarreling amongst each other or amongst it's selves, so one day your neighbor are friends the next riots and mass death. 4. nations aren't the only ones who fight amongst themselves so do families and clans, don't mistake, these clans have hundreds if not thousands of troops.

guilds and organizations

1. there are hundreds of guilds but none as popular or as influential as the adventary guild, controlling fourteen percent of the total market. 2. The adventary guild was created out of necessity to combat the torrential children and the torrential creatures during war. 3. So started the Adventaries as a mercenary group, they did their jobs for nobles and presents alike, or anyone who could pay. 4. Overtime they grew into a large and strong guild providing all types of services, from adventuring to mercenary work.

5. The Anthropic defense syndicate is an organization made up of kidnapped important children, people from strong families, with good heritage to kill wandering torrential creatures. 6. They will find torrentials as they wander through towns and countryside, killing them. 7. The agents work and are hired by nobles to keep peace and order.

Religions amongst the Anthropic

1. The biggest religion is Exalderianism, the belief that he made Petra, sent a warrior down from heaven to fight and kill the torrential father and rain as king forever. 2. Their church connects to almost forty million individuals across multiple nations.

3. Abliquities, the belief that you must fight for and with your abilities to enter heaven where for thousands of years you may drink and party. 4. this has a following of twenty-eight million individuals across multiple nations.

5. Luciferianism, by far the largest group of followers with the oldest church and praise for the torrential father luscious. 6. They praise his strength, love, and being, for he is worth praising in their eyes. 7. one billion two hundred million followers across three races, continents and multiple nations. 8. Eight million anthropic followers and slowly growing.
