While working on Religions for the Frontier I thought of this. Not sure if it counts as a religion and would like some input on those who know Yazirians better than me.<br /><br /><font size="3" face="Times New Roman">

Yazirian Life Enemy are a very misunderstood concept. It is not the drooling
insane Yazirian stalking his enemy in the night. It is a total commitment of
self to defeat someone or something. The problem arises that many Yazirians
have no idea how they are going to go about defeating their life enemy. <o:o:o:p></o:o:o:p></span></font></p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman">
</font><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: normal" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'"><font size="3">Centuries ago Khad-mar took on as his life enemy,
everyone else’s life enemy. She established a monastery where those who do not
know how to proceed to defeat their life enemy can come. The monks there never
ask who or what an initiate’s life enemy is. The initiates are taught
meditation and basic martial arts and yoga and other mind sharpening techniques
to prepare themselves. Advice on how to proceed with their mission is given
only in cryptic sayings and metaphors never are they told how to proceed. <o:o:o:p></o:o:o:p></font></span></p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman">

chosen each other has life enemies have sat and trained next to each other. One
unique part going to a Khad-mar monastery is that when leaving you can confirm
your life enemy or abandon it with no loss of honor. It is considered that
through the training of the Khad-mar a Yazirian can learn what they should really be doing with their life and strive toward that goal.</font></span></p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman">
