Promised Duel

The Empatarah Circle holds a central position within the Great Steppe, and its significance extends beyond its size and shape. 

It is the convergence point for four major branches of flowing water that radiate in all directions across the Steppe. 

These four tributaries symbolize the interconnectedness and interdependence of the tribes inhabiting the vast expanse of the Steppe.

As the waters flow from the Empatarah Circle, they nourish the lands, sustaining the life and livelihoods of the Steppe's inhabitants. 

The circle itself serves as a vital gathering place, drawing the tribes together for both practical and spiritual purposes.

The Steppe's inhabitants revere the Empatarah Circle as a sacred site, where rituals and ceremonies are performed to honor the Earthmother and Skyfather, the deities intertwined with their belief systems.
