Bonded To The Alpha God of War
“We do not forget you.”
The words were not loud, yet they resonated through the warriors’ bones.
“Your courage lingers in our bones,” he continued, his gaze sweeping away the faces of his warriors.
“Your blood flows in our veins.”
He lifted a wooden cup filled with dark wine.
“Tonight, we do not mourn… we live. For the fallen live through us.”
He drank first, and the warriors erupted into a roar of celebration.
The ceremony shifted, the mournful air replaced with fierce energy. Warriors danced across the burning hill, their feet stomping in rhythm, their voices raised in tribal songs that reverberated through Anana’s bones.
