Universal among the various Kenebune bands were the Departed Ones, powerful shamen who oversaw mystery cults and exercised prodigious secular power among the warrior societies. The name stems from the widely-held belief that the souls of each of these elite shamen left for an extended trip for the duration of his life, reuniting only in death. The Departed Ones seemed to form a loose network crossing the boundaries of band and kinship, and they often worked together. Early Faithful accounts ascribe colorful acts of sorcery to the Departed Ones, including the summoning of demons and "strange winds". The long conflict between Tall Pine Kenebune and the Bristlecone Lake Faithful includes many descriptions of Departed Ones summoning "demons" from the lake. | Universal among the various Kenebune bands were the Departed Ones, powerful shamen who oversaw mystery cults and exercised prodigious secular power among the warrior societies.
