Hearth Stations of Umbak
The Hearth Stations of Umbak have evolved over time from their original simple social safety net for the homeless. While Umbak is one of the places with the least homeless problem, there are always circumstances leading to loss of home and safety. It is part of the social safety net inherent in its “honor in service” perspective of its noble houses and precepts of the Lightbringers and Umbaks traditional form of nationalism.
In Umbak, the Hearth Stations are essentially homeless shelters, public baths, and also typically serve as hostels. There is typically one of these in every settlement. In the smaller ones, it is tied to (either connected to or next to) a Lightbringer church.
In the last few hundred years, the Hearth Stations and the function of The Pigsjin of Umbak have been combined.
