In highland areas these relatives may be in the next valley over, in lowland areas they may be the other side of some other boundary such as a river. I can't see it being any less normal for people to visit these relatives - popping home to see mum and show her the grandkids - where they are close enough and relations are friendly. And because these people are 'known' this is not the full-scale perform the greeting, go before the chief kind of meeting, but a casual visit.
As such Yinkini will probably have plenty of opportunity to visit with the friendly neighbors.
We're always talking about the enemies, but I think its important to recognize the importance of friends
Now there may be some clans that have no friends, or no neighboring friends. Pity such clans, their lives are more difficult and miserable.
