Deep within the dense jungles of the Uruk lands. Lay a hut somewhere lost to those who seek. This very hut being a centre of wonder and mystery, a hut connected to the Spirits due to a certain uruk who decided to live within this building. From this hut paths are set. Choices are made, those who wish to honor the Spirits, who aim to prove themselves to be worthy of their love and affection hear the very paths being made from this mysterious hut that has been lost for too long, a trial has began to those who wish to venture down the path of the Spirits. The first trial is that of blood and honor. These two words follow the ideas of the Spirits known as Kezt, the very spirit that represents all things that follow. Honour and bravery. Alongside the Spirit known as Gazigash, the spirit that represents all things that follow. Blood, bone and the flesh, sometimes known as the queen of blood herself. Those who accept will venture into the jungle and call out towards the Spirits and hope the Spirits will offer them guidance in finding the shaman that lurks within. The Trial of Blood The trial of blood isn’t as one would assume. It is not the needless killing of those who crossed the loyal Spiritualist as they aim to provoke the response of the trials. It is symbolic, once offering themselves out to the shaman that holds the trails they will use the blood of foes, animals and even friends to mark the body of the worthy, these marks will be blessed each by the Spirits themselves to make the whole body, tribute to the Spirits. To say that this body will always be in debt to them and will act as a tool of their will. The Trial of Honour This trial isn’t the needless sense of acting proud, to be prideful. This is a trail given upon completion of the trial of blood. Once marked the body becomes a tool for the Spirits will and from this, the Spirits will use them as they see fit as warriors? as healers? as shamans? It does not matter, but they will show honour in the very task they hold without allowing their newly found position to go to head. If they do, they have failed and surely will be cursed as a fool till death. These trials are to prove those who wish to walk this path. Walk it by being ready to spill blood, mark themselves and give themselves over to greater powers. To never fall to dishonourable actions, these are the trials of the Shaman in the jungle. Those who accept should do so with pride. Bugd-dalg agh gimb nûm-ug Shronka'Lak. Shaman of Shezept
