The '''Sehi-To''' {{Pronunciation|SEH-hee-TOE}} are a [[Fanakara|Fanakaran]] people who live on the mountainous islands of the [[Angry Kings]] archipelago in the [[Wounds]]. Life within their fortified villages exists within the bounds of elaborate hierarchies that determine the role and status of each individual.

== Demographics ==
[[Human|Humans]] account for nearly all of the Sehi-To.

== Culture ==

=== Religion ===
The Sehi-To adhere to animistic practices in which nature spirits are venerated, especially those of stones and mountains. In this their beliefs bear some resemblance to those of the [[Basharma]] giants who live on a [[Phersu|different island chain]] many hundreds of miles away. The Sehi-To hold that all rocks, from pebbles to boulders and even mountains, are able to walk the islands as they wish, depositing themselves in places important to the spirit.

=== Society ===
Sehi-To society is deeply hierarchical. The circumstances of one's birth - their family, their island, and the prevailing weather patterns of the time - dictate how their lives must be led, including their role in their village, the habits they must keep, and the foods they are permitted to eat. It is exceptionally uncommon for an individual to break out of such restrictions and still remain a member of their community.

=== Language ===
Nearly all Sehi-To are fluent in both [[Sea-Speak]] and their own Fanakaran dialect.

=== Architecture and urbanization ===
Unlike most other Fanakaran peoples, the Sehi-To are effectively entirely settled - very few adopt nomadic lifestyles. They reside in fortified mountainside strongholds, well-protected from the elements, wild creatures, and their rivals. These villages, each home to typically somewhere between three and six hundred people, are surrounded by tall stone walls, traps, and other defenses.

Sehi-To religion and their fortifications are deeply intertwined. To move a stone is to potentially act against the will of their spirit, and so they establish their villages in areas with many natural defenses already in place, such as a collection of large boulders that could, if extended and the spaces between filled, serve as an outer wall. They then consult with each further stone they move to ensure its wishes are respected. In doing so the Sehi-To create a barrier around their homes that is not only physical but also spiritual, for every single stone in their walls is there because it desires to protect the people within and will go to every length to do so.

== Government ==
Leaders of the Sehi-To are hereditary monarchs, whose word is the single and final source of truth and law. Each village has its own monarch, who typically resides in a grand longhouse in the middle of the community and in the farthest place possible from the outer walls. As a result there are countless kings and queens of the Sehi-To, all in a network of rivalries, alliances, and treaties with each other.
