-SM Stirling, Snowbrother (New York, 1985), Chapter 14, p. 224.
But that will happen in a later Stirling series.
At last, we see it and it is not quite what we expect. Neither side wins decisively. There is space for a sequel. We know that this series continues.
The shaman can go OBE (out of the body). Does whatever goes out of the body leave it at death and go elsewhere, before the gods for judgment and reincarnation or with the Circle into the Harmony? The characters believe so but will subsequent volumes confirm it? Again, diverse hereafters happen in a later Stirling series.

Kaor, Paul!
That is typical of S.M. Stirling, to end a book with "space" for sequels if he wished to write any. Stirling did write some stand alone novels, such as THE PESHAWAR LANCERS and CONQUISTADOR, but even they can have sequels if he ever wants to write them.
