Description
The ritual of the telo is central to a traditional Castithan marriage. Conceptually, a woman comes into the world blind, until her husband brings light into her life. This is achieved by covering her face with a telo (often given by a mother or mother-in-law), which her husband then removes, so that the first face she sees is her husband's.
