Describe the physical characteristics and social customs of the Kosekin people as observed by Adam More.

Physical Characteristics

The Kosekin people, as observed by Adam More, are generally small in stature and slender in frame, with black, straight hair and regular features[1]. Their complexion is noted to be not unlike Arabs, though they lack the typical Arab hardness and austerity[1]. All Kosekin men have beards, which are dressed in a peculiar plaited style[1]. A striking physical characteristic is their eyes, which are typically small, dull, and weak, often kept almost closed as if troubled by the sun's glare[1]. This ocular sensitivity leads them to prefer darkness, dwelling mostly in dark caverns and using roads shaded by giant ferns when outdoors[1]. Their general expression is one of great gentleness[1].

Social Customs and Values

The Kosekin's social customs are fundamentally shaped by their core beliefs, which are often the inverse of those in More's world. Their primary characteristic is a profound love of darkness and a strong dislike of life[1]. They consider death the "Lord of Joy" and the highest blessing, actively seeking it and avoiding natural death if possible<sup class='text_citation' source_id='1' start_phrase='Here,
