The Reshi worship Tai-na as their gods. They believe that the Tai-na approve of boldness, and interpret the movements of the Tai-na as divine will. They use bundles of fruit as offerings.[4]
Clothing
Reshi standard clothing includes wrap and tassels. Swimmers like to walk about unclothed.[4] In parts of the Reshi Isles, some women don't even wear tops due to the hot weather.[5] The king of an island is dressed in full, voluminous robes and the soldiers wear crustacean breastplates and armguards carved with points.[4]
