This process must be passed by a soldier so no doubt the loyalty of the soldier by the leader. In connection with this process, the soldiers also had to do the cleaning yourself by making a confession of sins is done. Goal, so the soldiers, must be completely holy before competing for the safety of the soldiers themselves.

After going through some of the earlier stages, hereafter, Ata Nipi (the dreamer) who believed his ability was called to determine the best based on the instructions / dream before going to war. In addition, the dreamer can also specify according to figures eyesight decent fighters advanced into battle. It is inevitable, such a process is also often found in the annals of the ancient kingdoms of the world. It can be said, a victory was not absolutely rely on soldiers only, but also through other public participation although not directly involved in the war.

5. No'o nai ra-tangi tangi;
