This was more or less my concept, too, until I remembered about clan tula boundaries. I believe it's the case that these are well defined and well marked, and the wyter has power within but not without? "Beating the bounds" ceremonies like around a medieval parish? Or have I got that all wrong?
I'd guess there are gaps between tulas, though. We may complain about Sartar being a bit over-populated, but it's not like 21st century Britain.
And tribes, of course, are the sum of the clans, and as such don't have borders of their own.
