They had trouble finding a clan in any elemental territory that would be willing to welcome both of them - most weren't willing to deal with Dusk's lack of understanding, and generally unnerving looks. Eventually, however, they came across the Flickering Shadows clan, and were welcomed into the group regardless Dusk's…

herding their animals. Clans of nomads often interacted with settle societies through trade; however, sometimes weak settlements were raided by strong nomadic clans. • Pastoralists: pastoralists were nomads who herded domesticated animals and were constantly on the move in search of pasture for their herds.

variation was tolerated as long as it was on a matter of lesser importance. A moral concept that is common throughout Aboriginal culture was ‘payback’. “Payback is a big part of our law and culture”— Phill Moncrieff, Aboriginal musician Aboriginal clans…

Nothing made much sense in the clan. Items would go missing and would be found stuck upside down on the ceiling of the old crumbled castle rubble they called home. It was an old battlefield so ancient that some of the dragons gossiped and wondered if the grounds were cursed and haunted by unrestful spirits, rageful, and murderous.

Dany has a strange way of turning around a bad situation. In season 1, Khal Drogo’s death contributed to her becoming a mother of…

full picture of what exactly the clan was and was after in the 1920s. In the introduction of the book, MacLean states the purposes for writing this book. “The goal of this study, then, is to situate Klan members in the world of their day, to take seriously what they did, and to listen carefully to what they said. In this way, we can learn a great deal about what made them tick.” The importance of this study cannot be understated enough. Typically, when studying the clan, we tend to look over the…

In a meeting to discuss the traditional ancient feast that was coming up, Okonkwo behaves in an ill way towards a man who had shared a disagreement with him. During the meeting of the village’s clan, an old man, “was struck, as most people were, by Okonkwo’s brusqueness in dealing with less successful men” (Achebe 26).
