The Amarata is the way of hospitality. Umbakians pride themselves on their refined tastes, cleanliness, and strength. They express this by following the precepts of the Priestess Amarata of Aerna – from thousands of years ago. The way dictates that the hospitality of the hearth is the path to goodness, purity, and discipline. All must have a hearth wherever they go, to remind them of family and home. It is very orthodox and traditional – an art and way that is dying out.
