Jun Rin Province (Ilarion Environment)
Greetings are always formal and the oldest person in a group is greeted first. Most greetings include a rhetorical invitation to dine or take tea together. If a meal or tea is taken it is often in a restaurant or teahouse. Sharing food in the home signifies equality, and people of higher rank are never invited to dine in one's home.

Marriage and Family
There are three ways to marry in Jun Rin. The first is a traditional arranged marriage, negotiated between the families overseen by a matchmaker. A bride price and dowry are exchanged, the bride and groom meet for the first time on the day of the wedding and each family holds its own wedding feasts on different days. The wife takes up residence in her husband's household.
The second involves adopting a pre-adolescent, usually infant daughter as a future bride for one of their pre-adolescent, usually infant, sons, and the children are raised together. The marriage only occurs after both have reached puberty. The wedding can range from a large banquet on par with traditional arranged marriage to a bow to the ancestors and a slight change in the family's sleeping arrangements. This type of marriage can occur among any caste or level of wealth but is particularly common among poor and rural families.
The third form of marriage involves a man marrying into his wife's family, because the groom has no property, and the bride’s family has no male heir.
