The gods control all, please them and be in their favor

The temple mound complex at Khasapa is always busy, between the daily noon rituals on the sun mound and the offerings to the individual gods for specific people's problems. But today, everything was quiet and still, even though all the inhabitants of the town were gathered in the sun mound's plaza. Kranos, the head priest was standing upon a new platform built into the sun mound to face the plaza, lower than the mounds dedicated to the separate gods, but has a larger area. Kranos, wearing the ceremonial white tunic and matching turban with a wooden six-pointed star necklace said to have been passed down from the first priest-chief of Khasapa, just walked out of the small building constructed on this platform to house offerings and other things required for rituals in the complex. Following him were the 7 patriarchs of the families that lived in the town.

"Citizens! Merchants! Followers of Khenta! Lend me your ears! Our town has become very busy indeed! Atòr himself has blessed us with the fortune to have such magnificent mounds built in his honor! Mounds, which have attracted people from every walk of life to improve themselves! All of these offerings are taxing on the monastery" As he speaks he points over to the collection of 3 houses built on a multi-platform mound "We cannot supply enough materials anymore to perform all of the ceremonies!

It is for this reason why I have made a decision! With the agreement of our familial leaders, why the monastery will now be aided in its collection of goods for the offerings by the lovely people of this town! Every day, priests from the monastery will make rounds of all the houses in the village to collect the goods requested the day before. These goods will be very useful in aiding the monastery in leading our great people in the way of the gods!"
