Marriage

In both Ethuverazheise and Barizheise culture, women when married become part of their husband's family. This change of families begins with the signing of the marriage contract and the exchange of oath rings, which may predate the actual wedding by many months.

Oath rings are made of iron, "as plain for an emperor as for a cowherd," and are worn on the right thumb.

Children who are not the child of married parents are not considered orphans. The term used instead of "foundling".
