Still following their own customs that can be harsh at times, and are particularly cruel to women (women must give birth alone and unaided, a woman's adultery is punished by burying her up to her neck in the earth and then leaving her for days), the Seburi are mainly treated with fear and animosity by the non-Seburi townspeople of the region.

Winter avalanches and snowstorms cause as much havoc as the tensions engendered by the slow encroachment of the modern world.
