| rdfs:comment | - The Age of Ascension is marked by a ceremony celebrating the time when childhood ends and adulthood begins. Medivh's ceremony would have seen him receiving the title as "Apprentice Conjurer to the Court". Unfortunately, he fell into a coma. Llane's ceremony sees him receiving the full station of "Prince of Azeroth".
- The Klingon Age of Ascension was the time when a Klingon child officially became a warrior. The first Rite of Ascension had to be taken by the age of 13 in order for a Klingon youth to declare his intentions to become a warrior. (TNG: "Firstborn" ) The final initiation ceremony involved the use of painstiks, as the celebrant walks along a line of warriors, intoning: "DaHjaj SuvwI'e' jIH. tIqwIj Sa'angnIS.'Iw bIQtIqDaq jIjaH." ("Today I am a warrior. I must show you my heart. I travel the River of Blood.")

("Today I am a warrior. I must show you my heart. I travel the River of Blood.") The anniversary of the event was a day of ritual and celebration. On the tenth anniversary of Worf's Rite of Ascension (he apparently did it when he was 15) his crewmates aboard the USS Enterprise-D recreated the ceremony on the holodeck. (TNG: "The Icarus Factor" ) When Worf's brother Kurn reached the Age of Ascension, his adopted father Lorgh told him of his true parentage. (TNG: "Sins of the Father" ) In "Heart of Glory" , Worf refers to the Age of Ascension as "the Age of Inclusion"; however, this is the only instance in which this name is used on-screen. That term was also used in the game Star Trek: Klingon to refer to the Age of Ascension.
