+ | * Drawing maps of stars and routes between places. | ||
+ | * Attending Funeral Services ++Notes|(Most Funeral Services are overseen by the Church of whatever deity is important to the deceased), | ||

+ | * Display star maps. Observe the stars. | ||
+ | * Putting up sign posts so that travellers know where they are and which way to go. | ||

+ | |||
+ | ===== Church ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Takri does not have a formal church structure, each priest is expected to chart their own path to salvation - and who is to say which path is correct? | ||
+ | |||
+ | Most priests operate with a small, portable, shrine dedicated to Takri - although they don't even need that to hold a service. | ||
