Introduction

They, whether in small tribes or small little settlements, farmed wheat in small garden patches on the outskirts of their home. The most common crop was wheat from which they made tortillas as their main variant of bread. Kharajyr  food is particulary on a hot stone or clay plate. The same described plate on which Tortillas are baked and various other meals, as it is in fact the replacement of a stove to the Kharajyr. On this stone, food can be grilled, cooked in pots, baked, and much more. Though the use of pots and pans is recent, due to the modernity of other cultures seeping into that of the Kharajyr. It is also quite important to clean these frequently. 

Kharajyr are expertised in using various traps in order to catch fish and birds from the forests in their surroundings. A small population of these caught animals, mainly ducks and chickens, are kept as livestock along with caged rabbits. The rabbits are prone to quickly recover from and grow their population after a part is brought to the table as food. 

The food in the past, when the Kha lived in lush jungles, was always seasoned by all the spices they found in the jungle. Favored seasonings exist out of chili's, peppers, avocado's, achiote seeds, and many more. The sugar cane found in the jungle was also a favored snack to manufacture further and nibble on as a sweet snack during the workday.

Various dishes from the cuisine

Patarashca

Two grilled pieces of cod that have been freshly grilled on a hot plate which are then wrapped up in a cleaned banana leaf.  The cod is accompanied by diced onions, tomato slices, and a few cooked shrimp sometimes. A creamy, soft lemon-sauce lays on top of such a dish. Dill is sprinkled atop of the sauced cod for taste and a few bay leaves are often used as garnish.

Tortilla Chips

A small terracotta bowl that is filled to the brim with triangle-shaped chips lays here. The chips are warm upon grabbing them, showing that they were freshly-baked. On standard, they are slightly covered in paprika powder. Tortilla chips often are accompanied with various sauces made from avocado or chili's. The chips are mostly eaten as a snack and are not suited for a full dinner.

Cua Cua 

Cua Cua is a tribal beef dish where a wooden bowl will be filled with a bed of baked sweet potatoes on the bottom. Then, pieces of beef will be seasoned and baked rare and placed ontop.  A gravy made from beef broth, salt, pepper, diced onion, melted butter, and sliced pieces of cooked, brown mushrooms sits atop of the stew. It's often decorated with a few coriander leaves.

This is all for good fun and is a cultural post. It's not restricted for Kharajyr to RP it and is part of just a culture. If you got any further inquiries you can shoot me a DM on chaos#7283 on the food or just in general about some Kharajyr lore stuff.

Thank you for reading :D

Astronomy

The studies of the Kharajyr of old focused heavily on the study of Astronomy. Most of the ancient Kharajyr passed on this knowledge down, making it a still practiced study among Kharajyr and various other individuals who learned it from them. The study of astronomy itself focused on the stars, meteors, the sun, and the moon. Any phenomenon that occurred in the grey skies was considered a part of the study. The Remnants still to these days create lenses and tools that aid a lot in the study of the night sky, such as telescopes for example, or lunar maps.

All of the Kharajyr Astronomy can be split up in two main branches of sciences: Cosmology and Astrology:

Cosmology

Cosmology is the study of the origin of all the stars in the night sky, and by extension, the beginning of time and the future. This study and scientific branch was inspired by the religion of the Kharajyr surrounding Metztli, the Deamon of Time. It woke interest within them to aid Metztli in her eternal task to maintain the timeline of the world. The reason why they used the atmosphere above them as a guideline was because Metztli was thought to be the actual moon itself. And so, the Kha interpreted that every action she made was displayed through actions in the stars and sky.

The study is still used to this day. By either actual scientist or other specialists on the subject, whether Kha or other. These individuals attempt to read what events happen when the stars align in a specific position. This includes phenomenon's such as meteors, solar eclipses and the likes. They can determine what happened by the position of a celestial body or what will happen once that celestial body hits its following position. The Remnants who practice this magic interpret and sometimes record these signs in calendars. They record what has happened in the past by certain aligning of the stars and will warn for what is expected to happen once the celestial bodies take the same position in the sky again. They for example, can attempt to predict the end of the world one day.

The cosmology branch is focused a lot more on an objective point of view and always attempts to focus on a larger scale of what can happen. They create lenses, telescopes, Celestial maps, calendars, and many more items in their study to read the stars.

================================================================================================================================================

Telescope

[ https://www.catawiki.com/l/11688697-ancient-telescope-french-weapons-factory-of-st-etienne]

One of the most used tools are telescopes. They're made through wood carving and glassblowing. The lenses are separately made and installed inside the wood-carved tube. Oftentimes, there'll be multiple of these lenses inside, up to 5 could be stored inside. These are located there to enhance the zoom effect of the ordinary telescope.

Celestial Map

Most of the phenomenon's are recorded. It is recorded what stars take on which positions, then the events of that day are also recorded separately on a calendar. For example, if on a particular day, a tsunami happens on the east coast, then the celestial's bodies in the sky might possibly be a warning of that catastrophe. They are recorded on their Celestial/Lunar maps and then also recorded on a calendar. So when a date and celestial body in the sky aligns, one could warn and possibly prevent a problem that might reoccur. Of course, Kharajyr believe heavily in this science but whether it's a 100% legitimate is up to debate among a lot of others.

Calendar

[!] Kharajyr Calendars are created following this method of cosmology [!]

=========================================================================================================

Astrology

Another ‘science’ branch that popped up from the Kharajyr’s Astronomy science was astrology. Astrology is the science of determining in a more subjective way and more personalized way. Opposite of cosmology (for how much that is worth), this science focuses on what will happen to one particular person due to their personality and the location of celestial objects. Though, it is highly inaccurate most of the time. This science is not really that precise but as an example, one could determine what would happen to a specific somebody based on the lunar phase they were born under. Astrologers can also backtrack calendars and find out under which lunar phase an individual was born.

People who practice Astrology, will look for what moon phase someone is born under and what positions the stars are in. The Astrology branch leeches off the Cosmology one to learn the positions of stars and phenomenons. They, however, interpret these events differently, so that they can affect a specific person with a specific moonphase.  They through this way attempt to read the past, present, and future of the person who they are ‘reading’ and bring that person either positive, negative, or neutral news.

(Kharajyr Astrology however is not based on zodiac signs but rather moon phases are born under and other factors.)

1 -Introduction

Sa'vi dear reader, this guide is a simple and basic summary which  is based on the current culture the Kha follow. It's new and a way to visualize for the rest of the world to see how our world works. To add onto this, there will be a multitude of books that shall be released in the future regarding the Kharajyr culture in its modern state right now. Now to explain this book. We Kharajyr follow a hierarchy just like any race. The humans might have a king or emperor , but the Kha used to have a Tlatanni. Where one Kha might paint beautiful paintings while another erects buildings from the ground, makes them both a great artist! Every Kha and therefore by extend, any person has a talent and should be recognized for it. But if you don't know someone thorough enough then how do you know? That's the reason why we Kha use prefixes. We add a prefix to our name and every time someone speaks it, another Kha will know what sort of talent this person might possess.

2- Tlatanni and the High Aelkos

In ancient times, the Kharajyr were led by their brethren who had inherited white fur. They saw this as a sign of divinity and found them messengers of Metztli, their deity. However, no Tlatanni has appeared for over a century and maybe even longer. Therefore, the more modernized individuals that have dabbled in this ancient culture have created a solution: The High Aelkos. The High Aelkos is the ultimate leader over the entire settlement according to culture, bearing a similar name as well. A High Aelkos is comparable to a king, and the position is given to the heir of the current one, or another individual might the High Aelkos choose for such in their last will. Family of the High Aelkos are seen as royal and are in line to be a possible heir. A High Aelkos is of course seen as part of the leadership class.

3 - Priests/Templars =  Ja'

In the past, in the time the Kharajyr Empire still had influence on the world, you would often find temples and small places to pray around the territories. Faith and religion was something that took a lot of time from the old Kharajyr. That is why the position of Priests or other religion-related professions was glorified. The old religion of Metztli is not worshipped that much anymore, as many have uncovered a horrific truth about it. However, the respect for priests for other religions and the old one remains under all current Remnants. A new religion is slowly coming to life, and therefore, the head of religion, the High Templar, still assigns priests. Those who are assigned such a religion profession are given the prefix of Ja’.

4 - Warriors = Do'

As expected, any who carry this prefix are seen as part of the Warrior class, which is also the main reason for the name. Knights, soldiers, scouts, and many more who practice a militaristic or security-related profession gain the opportunity to gain this prefix. However, they only officially receive this once they have gone into battle for the first time or have resolved a major conflict which required physical force. The Golden Sentinel, or assigned superiors who already have the prefix, shall bestow the prefix upon the new Warrior. This can also happen outside of militaristic means, often done by the High Aelkos who rewards an individual for showing bravery within a dire situation.

5 - Artist/Writer/Creatives = Ji'

Those that carry this prefix are those of a creative mind, and of course, this is part of the Commoner Class. Typically obtained by artists, writers, chefs, dancers, tailors or skilled craftsmen including art in their work. This prefix is often given by tutors of the Creative or taking upon them by themselves after they have gained some experience.

6 - Doctors = Dra'

Those that carry this prefix are those who are skilled in the art of aiding the ill. They are capable of creating medication and treatments in order to heal the wounded. Often, doctors will clothe themselves in white, representing the fact they work in sterile/clean environments for safety.

7 - Merchants = Ka'/Ki'/Ko'

The Kharajyr of old that carry this prefix are those with a silver tongue and pockets overflowing with gold. Capable of bartering for great amounts of wealth or maintaining large companies. Though, this is a prefix given to vendors who peddle in wares which are not created by themselves as craftsmen who do.

8 - Wizards/Mages = Jo' 

Individuals that carry this prefix are considered magic users or practice some form of practice that somehow involves magic,  think of Golemancy. Any Remnant may carry this title, so long they maintain the ability to connect with the Void, cast magic, or practice a profession which requires some form of magic. Alchemists also fall under this subcategory.

9 - Adults = Si'/Sa'/So'

Although a prefix everyone will possess at one point in their life, it is typically given by their parents. This is usually done around an age or point of time where the parent(s) find their child to be of age to embrace adulthood or at 18 years old which is the general guideline of someone becoming an adult.

10 - Children = S'

All children, usually under the age of 18 (but this can vary as mentioned earlier), carry this prefix if they wish to. All children we’ll automatically gain this prefix and will keep it until they are officially considered an adult. Until they are an adult, they won’t be able to gain any other prefixes that are in regards to the mentioned professions. Children should get the most out of their childhood, and should not be obligated to jobs yet unless they willingly want to. This is when they can prove themselves prematurely to be identified as an adult.

11 - Elders  = Yhl'

The Kharajyr of old that carried this prefix is your common elder. It is an optional title, and typically is only held if a Kharajyr has no greater position in the society. However, this condition is now available to all followers of the ancient culture. Considered a “retirement” title, it is held by those who no longer seek work, are retired officially, or are too old to work. An Elder holds great respect, and is to be respected for their commitment to the society in their younger years.

Kharajyr Language - Kharahatla

Kharahatla is the ancient language of the Kharajyr, spoken by the first Kharajyr on the island of Karakatua, in Asulon. The language was thought to be lost with the fall of Asulon, but on the isles of Axios, a group of adventurers found the tomb of an ancient Kharajyr. This Kharajyr was buried with hundreds of books, written in the lost language. Though many were damaged beyond repair, with the efforts of many talented Kharajyr scribes, many of them were translated, granting insight into the once-lost language.

With the resurgence in popularity of ancient Kharajyr culture under Tlahtoani Jakarra, it has become popular among Kharajyr to use words and speech fragments of the Kharahatla language in daily speech.
