Conquest

mystic

This rite is performed whenever one Jarl has defeated another. The rite acknowledges the history of both the fallen Jarl and the new Jarl, and is actually more ceremonial than mystical. The heart of the slain Jarl must be consumed by the new Jarl, who symbolically gains the wisdom to rule his sept properly. In the case of the World-Jarl, the leader of all the Get of Fenris, the symbolic act is accompanied by the actual knowledge of the predecessor's Gifts. This rite ensures that Get of Fenris leaders will always be strong. The possessions of Jarls defeated in combat are turned over to the new Jarl, but any relatives who have a claim on the fetishes and weapons may challenge the new Jarl for the right to keep them.
