S'stch

S'stch, "Small one with no name", was the nezumi term for "child". All Ratlings were called S'stch until the second spring after their birth, when the Nezumi hold the Rite of Naming. Way of the Ratling, p. 124 It was also used as the Name of a ratling who had been outcast and later allowed to return to the tribe. It implied this nezumi had no Name and his status was the lowest one. Way of the Ratling, p. 90
