Most
people act on misinformation, and so rub themselves with fern spores to protect them from curses, drink sour milk to let them see uz more clearly, carry aspen branches with leaves on them to counteract uz poison, pray to Ernalda before combat to protect themselves from uz missiles, believe that Arkat proved that all westerners are Kitori, think that refraining from all meat makes them less visible to uz, are told that bowing especially low will make trolls polite, believe that a "striker stone" frightens trollkin, trust their bag of bees to warn them
when uz are nearby, have faith that knowing the "Legend of Five Sisters"
will let them escape uz in the darkness, are convinced that eating onions, or (only) five different beans at ever meal, a piece of blessed bull testicle, the "bitter salad of Vera," or the Starkval Tea will help
them resist uz magic, and expect that wearing Hedkoranth's belt will help them kill uz; none of which are true, and all of which are regularly practiced.
