17. Every citizen must journey, at least once, to the Sardar Mountains before they are twenty-five years old. The Initiate Caste monitors who goes and who does not. The Initiates also teach that misfortunes will strike a city if their youth try to avoid this sacred obligation. Sometimes the Initiate Caste will ask a person to make the journey at a specific time. In some cities and islands, such as Teletus, your family will receive a gold tarn disk if you make the journey when the Initiates request it.
Over the years of study I have gathered many notes for which I claim nothing more than they have become part of my collection. If you are reading from my journal - I recommend the accuracy of what you read be checked against the scrolls that John Norman composed telling of life on our world of Gor. Should you be so inclined and come in peace, look me up in Rorus and we can discuss your thoughts over some black wine.
