Gratiana still remembered how it felt when she was summoned to see The Oracle.
She had just attained her age of maturity and was going to become an Elder. It was an honor to grow into an Elder and finally assume more responsibility within the Elven Community.
She remembered how excited she was for the moment.
After all, more than the honor she would receive from her new name, and the responsibility that she would have to shoulder as an Elder, there was one more experience every Young One had to go through before they were officially recognized as an Elder.
—Meeting The Oracle.
It was The Oracle who gave names; the true nams that an Elder would bear for the rest of their lives. As such, Young Ones would appear within the shrine and be transported to the place where The Oracle resided.
No one really knew where it was.
However, all of those who had received this glorious experience had the same testimony.
