A Question About Marriage

[Verence]

You know, it occurs to me (a day late 'cause i THMURT) that there may have been a misunderstanding regarding my earlier posts. I'm not really interested in "traditions" on interracial marriages, since such marriages are probably by their very nature nontraditional. Such unions would, by my guess, go one way or the other culturally speaking or perhaps strike a happy medium that isn't really in the purvey of tradition, therefore not really a part of "lore" per se.

No, what I was interested in (and perhaps communicated poorly) was the traditions of each respective race and/or tribe: Lalafell traditions, Elezen traditions, Seawolf traditions, etc. That, I feel, is relevant and interesting information to how Eorzean society is built and how it functions. Families, how they're formed, and how they bring up the next generation is what interests me here - specifically in the context of names, but as stated before, any and all info would be interesting stuff to know just to expand our view of Eorzean culture and society as a whole.

Ahhh, see, this would be far more difficult for me to speculate on. Eorzea, itself being a cultural realm, seems to be midway through a melting-pot scenario. I suspect that in terms of traditional and race-specific cultural expressions, the examples will be few but more pronounced / important in the story.

I'll keep an eye out!
