Among the Zerefs, civil laws are generally difficult to take root.
They can issue many codes, constitutions, codes of laws, but they still do not work. Wherever people meet, they don’t pay attention to these laws. Professional lawyers try to make a very important face at the same time. They point a finger at the law book. They quote some paragraphs, sub-paragraphs, but this is done formally, it is done to correspond to their profession. An adult who goes to an important meeting or for a solemn meeting must wear a strict suit. This costume shows other people’s formal respect. If a person comes in untidy, in pajamas or a sports suit, what will they think of him? That’s how lawyers can’t sit and be silent when clients come to them.
But both the lawyer and the clients know that traditional people do not live by formal laws. Who wrote these laws? Some tailless monkey! What do you mean, tailless? But in a figurative sense. The authors of the law may be yesterday’s proletarians. Maybe not. But they were learning to have a new status. But in the traditional world, they will first ask, who is your father? And then they’ll see how smart and professional you are. In the beginning, you must be respectful. Sometimes old people use it.
All traditional people still respect old age. And if they respect particularly old age, let’s say this old man, give him a place in public transport, then they will look at any other root. In the traditional world, it is not this particular old age that is respected, but the former glory and merits. And if there is respect for the past, then all the time there is a search for the root. This is the root of every informal law.
Traditional people will not look for a professional, a connoisseur of the criminal code. They will look for the big official first. It will be very good for them if a relative or friend holds a high state post. Therefore, among the Zerefs, relatives are always respected, but they do not necessarily respect professional lawyers unless of course, they are also relatives. If they are related, they will help with problems. It is also an informal connection with the root, with related blood.
But if we return again to the Ancient World, where everyone was concerned about their glorious ancestors, then we will ask, why do the nobles need such difficulties?
They could create a family-like ordinary people and produce their offspring. That’s the problem. Offspring of what status? After all, without feats, there is no domination. And there is no domination without merit. So that the children of the Nobels do not experience problems in this world, all traditional people want to increase the tail of family fame. And then everyone will hang around their children, their descendants. Their descendants will walk with an invisible tail. And everyone will know that this family, this family, has a deep root.
Chapter V
Empire is a song
So why do Zerefs need a tail? They need the root first. From the root, they make themselves the very tail of glory. And we found out that the root is necessary for the surrounding people to always see the merits of the family if it is an ancient tail, the tail of the past, or the personal merits of a person who grew the root for posterity by a feat.
In the traditional world, and this is not necessarily just the world of antiquity, in the modern world there are also many peoples who openly adhere to traditions. There are nations that are half-civilized. There is a quarter cultivated, there is the eighth part, and so on. The relationship between tradition and culture is difficult to determine at once, but it is possible.
If the people value informal services, people worship officials, leaders, leaders, or even just people of age, then these persons are 100% traditional. These are the Zerefs. If there is worship, a deification of leaders, officials, but disrespect for old age, this is already a semi-traditional people. There is so insecure transitional caste of Zeremids. If the officials themselves respect the state and do not need a dictator’s stick to maintain discipline, then civilization has slipped by a quarter among the people. If there are Remid statesmen, responsible people who do not need either a root or their own personal tail, this is very good.
After all, every nation has a memory. So every nation has a tradition. The more memory governs the people, the more the people are traditional. And vice versa. This means that the more people look back to the past, the stronger the tradition. And if there is a tradition, then there is a hierarchy. If there is a hierarchy, then there are roots. After all, the root means the past. People look back, stare at the shadows. Any tree has roots. The older the tree, the deeper the roots. And so far in this area, there is no constitution or code of laws for everyone (first for the completely wild, who know nothing but war, and completely rootless, nomads and full of migrants) this means that this society is based on a hierarchy of local nobles (zerots). There are patricians and plebeians, feudal lords and black people, white bone and black bone, blue blood, and all sorts of different blood.
There comes a time when people with money (the refags) can impose their will on the Zerefs. How could this happen? So that people without a root and without fame become dominant. This will tell us only one thing: the people here are so mixed up, and in addition, the number of tailless migrants in this place has exceeded the critical line of unconsciousness. No one is interested in who is who. Who came from where, from what place they moved, just ran away from the feudal lord or from the fierce father. Or maybe the father himself kicked out, because there were a lot of children in the house, it was difficult to feed all the household members.
There is another very important variant of taillessness.
The most savage tribes, depending on the whims of nature, who did not have enough intelligence, natural sharpness, to oppose something to this very nature, for example, the same nomads. The most aggressive children of nature of all the barbarians. Of course, there were various root gatherers and hunters in history. But the consumption of plant roots is such a primitive development of farming, besides giving so few calories that a hereditary root does not grow from children, descendants, because most of those born died of hunger, so such an economy could not create an aggressive force. To assemble a squad and attack need a force of blood. And what can attract a group of hungry herb gatherers? Therefore, we can only talk about wild nomads, whom nature itself forced to unite on a related principle.
So, these are the most nomads are strongly reminiscent of the tailless merchants of refags. And the zerefs and the refags don’t actually have a tail. In any case, in a new place. None of the Zerefs had ever appreciated trading. Well, what can be the glory, if you managed to sell a herd of pets? Another thing is if you are lucky enough to exchange for the right thing, and even better to capture, rob the defeated victim. Therefore, the Zerefs, although they always have memories of the glorious past, start all over again in a new place. In that, the moment their memory resembles the floors of a building or the sheer cliffs of a mountain, one rock rising above the other. This is the time for all rootless or active passionaries without a glorious ancestor to show their prowess. Well, the Zerefs can’t live without the roots of glory. Because in a new place, the hierarchy does not disappear, it is updated.
Another thing is that Zeref does not need so much to be happy. He can build or install a portable dwelling, find a wife or capture a wife so that this woman will bear him heirs. This is enough for him to be happy. In order for the heirs to have something to inherit, then we need to continue the war. Neither hunting nor gathering roots, it’s all unimportant, but go to war, he must go on a campaign.
