Realm/Universe: Alternate Earth
Share about this realm: Humans are commonplace, though strange birth defects are also becoming more present in the 1300s. Electricity doesn't exist yet, and the steam engine has just been fashioned. In the western part of the continent, there is much more invention than there is to the east, or even in the middle grounds. Owning slaves is acceptable, though not a common practice unless one happens to be in a position of authority. In the plains region of Patellar, women have nearly as much authority as men do. That's region exclusive. In Chiranjivi to the East, women are looked to as wise, but they don't have a large influence on the culture. In the western region of Corath women don't hold much power at all, though they are valued.

Do they usually speak like this(Or is it a learned behavior?)?: Depends on the language, in his native tongue his voice is more natural for him, however, he normally speaks in what Patellar folk speak in, so it's a bit learned since he has to use the front of his mouth more.

Long term goals: Have a larger family, expand his village, prepare Jelani for becoming chief(eventually)
Why?: Offspring are good, and he likes babies, having Lelim become a full-fledged city and not a little boon village would give him quite the sense of pride/ego boost. And, finally, his son needs to man up enough to become chief, so it's Ahmos' job to train him
