King of Sartar, p246, Jalk's Book, Report on the Orlanthi,
Initiatory Status, last paragraph:
An observer can be admitted to some rituals. Most of the larger, social rituals allow observers. These people must be friendly or at least open, to the proceedings. Outsiders call these people /lay members/, though the use of this term is discouraged as probably being of God-Learner origin. Though they can watch what is going on, they never participate in the magic, and never get to see anything other than the mundane results of the rites.
