Fantasy (Untitled) sec 4

Levitos has always been the spiritual center of the Ouay lands. It is the home of the pillar. The pillar is a twelve foot high stone coloumn that stands in the middle of a courtyard. On it are the Twelve Sacred Laws of the Ouay. The laws are as follows: 1. Obey The Great King in all things. He is holy and just. 2. Eat nothing prohibited by the law of plants and life. 3. Rest when work is over. Do not work seven days a week. 4. Women, do not give yourself to more than one man. If you give your body to a man you must give your heart and mind as well. You must marry him. 5. Men, do not give yourself to more than one woman. If you give your body to a woman you must give your heart and mind as well. You must marry her. 5. Animals to be eaten must be treated kindly and killed quickly. 6. Do not take what does not belong to you. 7. Do not say things that are cruel, hurtful or untrue. 8. Never hurt someone on purpose. If someone hurts another person they are to be turned over to the elders. If the elders find the actions to be cruel, the person may be retaliated against in front of witnesses. 9. Before a child is born the mother and father must spend a month learning from the elders how to raise children. 10. An orphan must be adopted by a capable family no more than a month after the death of the parents. 11. Do not alter your mind with foods and drinks. 12. Love all people as though your life depended on it.
