Summary: "The Judging of the Priestess" by Nelson S. Bond is a science fiction story written during the early 20th century. Set in the 35th century, the narrative follows Meg, a priestess of the matriarchal clan of Jinnia, as she returns home with Daiv, a man from a different tribe, after her pilgrimage to the "Place of the Gods." The book explores themes of gender roles and societal norms, focusing on Meg's dual judgment and the acceptance of her partner in a world where the roles of men and women are sharply defined. The plot unfolds as Meg and Daiv encounter various challenges, including the hostile reception from Meg's clan and the arrival of the Japcans, invaders with advanced weaponry. As tensions rise, Meg must reconcile her love for Daiv with her loyalty to her tribe and navigate the conflicts that arise from their differing beliefs. The story culminates in battles and personal revelations, leading to the eventual acceptance of a new order where men and women can coexist as equals, contrasting with the oppressively matriarchal society Meg initially inhabited. Ultimately, this tale is a testament to the evolution of societal norms and the potential for unity across gender divides. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
