| Ayla is suffering discrimination because she does not look like the people in her adopted clan. The medicine woman, Iza who found her dies after a long winter, and Ayla is left to defend herself against Borud, the clan's new leader. He rapes her to belittle her, except it is not called rape, it is called letting men relieve themselves of her. The clan's opinions of sex are very strange, because they believe instead of semen impregnating women, it is when a soul's spirit enters another through the mouth. Women are expected to obey or be punished by being beaten. | ||
