| abstract | - Finreht Three-Seven is a tide-locked moon the size of a large planet that is classified by the Imperium as a Feral World. It is marginally habitable and its people are hardy and notoriously tough survivors. The Clans of Finreht Three-Seven are a semi-nomadic people who follow the herds of Mountain Grox (introduced to their world long ago) which roam the valleys of the moon in search of seasonal pasture. Each clan holds hereditary right of property over a particular herd, although they do not have any control over the direction of their wandering herds. Clan warfare is rife and many clans have hereditary rivalries which date back for centuries. The clans construct their dwellings along the migratory routs and move from one to another as the herd moves. The life blood of the clan is its herd. They hunt the predators which attack the herd, and occasionally take the weaker Grox for skins and meat. Skins are traded with the other septs when they come into contact and there is a surplus, along with women and weapons.
