The Ka’andesi clans have a tradition about souls. They say that a soul is made both of the Force and the land, because the Force shapes the land, and then the growing things, the running things, and the birds of the air in turn shape the Force. So when a creature is born, his soul is the Force that mingles with the land who bore him. The land is in his soul, and he cannot forget it.
The Ka’andesi also say that souls can be tied together. By returning to Inal, the place of belonging, a Ka’andesi may tie her soul to another and in doing so tie their lands together. In this way, marriages are made among the clan, weaving spirit to spirit and giving the wanderer a place to call his own. This is also the way that sisters can be made out of two who come from different mothers.
Yet there are those whose souls need no such tie. Among the Ka’andesi, these are called ktal’teanaki-beings whose souls are so closely linked that they might be called two aspects of the same thing. Each are unique, each are separate from one another. They are not the two halves of something, each alone and searching for completion. They are two of the same, like the clans themselves, and in finding one another, they find Inal within themselves.
In finding a mate, one finds completion. In finding a sister or a brother, one finds clan. In finding ktal’teanaki, one finds home.
All of these, together, mean Ka’andesi, and Ka’andesi means new hope.
