Her sacrifice was connected to the True Water Rune, and was used to seal it from Yuber and the Destroyers.

Which makes it unlikely that Alma-Kinan sacrifices are in any way regular.

I was under the impression that she was killed so that the special magic that kept Alma Kinian seperated from the rest of the world would stay intact. Didn't she say something about how Yuber could only ge in because their shield was weakening? Or am I just remembering wrong?


Yes, you are. Yuber was able to get past the field because he was following Chris' group. Yun and Yumi had allowed the group to pass by lowering the barrier. Once Yuber knew the location, it was easy for the Destroyer's to teleport in and out. Yun's sacrifice had nothing to do with protecting Alma Kinan.

I think the the Alma Kinan when they did they become a forest spirt, like some of us belived that when we die are soul go to heaven or hell but in the grassland it's diffent when one dies they become a spirt. Like if a kayon solider was to die fighting he would think that he would become a wind spirt cause the kayon live on open plaines.

Like if a duck solider was to fall in battle he would think he would become a water spirt since the duck clan live on the water.

and so when the Alma Kinan die they think that they will become a forest spirt since they live in the forest.

No. Yun, herself, told Chris that she would become a spirit of the wind. I do not think the grassland has forest spirits.

Edit: On second thought, earth spirits were mentioned, though.

Yes, The Alma Kinan strengthen their magics by sacrificing gifted childs to the spirits. This new Spirits strengthen the Alma Kinan and bless them with their powers. It's a ritual unique to them, and it's perfectly normal. To them this is not sluaghter, but mutual benefit. The sacrificed becomes a special being and lives on with her beloved spirits, and the town gets blessed with stronger "magic" and power.

Let's just say this, think for a moment you get chosen to live with God. Would you say no? That's basically what Yun thought. And what the Alma Kinan also believed in. The chosen one was treated like the most important person in the village.

Or it could be that they just liked being a bunch of sick puppies.
