    This reminds me of a piece of warhammer fantasy lore. In the empire part of the coming of age ceremony is to be “doomed”. You go to the temple of the God of death and one of his priests comes up with how you are going to die. You don’t get to choose though.

      THAT WILL BE AN IMPORTANT LESSON.
