Social Use
- Titles are context-driven and may change depending on ceremony, battle, or family.
- Lineage and bond names honor both ancestry and the lifemating union.
- Valorik kin terms track spiritual and blood bonds, not just nuclear family.
- “Mother” and “Father” are sacred, reserved for founders or revered direct parents.
- Children or juniors are addressed by their first name and lineage only.
- Example Full Title
- kaivor Zelra Fenikha Vairul – Queen Zelra of Fenikha, lifemated to Vairul
