Kas

One of the most basic principles of faith in Oksandanderi is that of Kas. The best translation for this is "natural order" or "law". Kas can be applied to the natural world, but is more often applied to the human world or the relation between humans and nature. Another meaning of Kas is "customary law". It is said by the people of the cities, that the tribes of the mountains live by the Kas. In a sense that they live in an unaltered state of natural law, instead of laws given by kings and councils. As such their law is primordial, while the law of the cities is artificial. Of course Kas is not natural law in this sense as it is still created by humans, but that this is a natural state of humans to exist with each other and with their surroundings of the non human world.
