The Rokbeigalm don't believe in standardized, ritualized set-time prayer.
Their word for "worship", _peres_, comes from a Proto-Elven root meaning
"to disturb". They consider it rude to constantly bother their Creator
with their little problems when Kabakh-a ("the Founder") has so many
other things to do.
I don't agree with them, although i have similar feelings when it comes
to 'bothering' *people*.
