Where the stars met the sky, there was The Place Where Children Died.
When the child begins to become a non-child, they must be taken to The Place.
Whoever is the medicine user at the time, must accompany the non-child to The Place.
Whatever the season of the land, whatever the season of the sky, whatever the season of The Place, the non-child is to be shown the weapons, tools, and requirements of being an adult in the tribe.
When this has been done, the non-child either agrees to be an Adult, or they do not return.
Hence the name.
