Emerald Tribe was a polygamous society. A man could marry four wives, and the patriarch could marry more than four.

The old patriarch had only married four wives, but he had taken in many women who didn't marry him. A son was important at that time. Those who were pregnant had verified the saying that a mother's honor increased as her son's position rose. During the old patriarch's reign, many babies died in the wombs. Only a few survived.

When the current patriarch, Pablo, was born, he was in poor health. Many people thought that he couldn't make it through his childhood. However, after he had been treated by the medical doctor for ten years, not only was he cured, but he also had a body that was immune to poison.

Although he just started his reign, many people in the tribe offered to help him choose a wife. A patriarch should have a wife with cultural and military strategies. Pablo looked at the finger pointing at him by the Goddess and thought of it.
