Normee's rite of passage. (tbe)
It happened when I was 11. My younger brother Mithros said it was time for me to get ready, my rite was starting. I was scared. I cried in my fathers' arms, mother kept telling me it would all be alright that her rite was over in a matter of minutes. I can't recall a time when i'd cried so much. But the tribal elders were fierce in their desire to see me prove myself so I was dragged away from my family. they presented me with a cup of something that smelled horrible, but looked strangely clear. There was my entire family at my back. I looked to my parents and they nodded. I wish they'd have always given me so much attention. I wanted tehir approval so I stopped sobbing long enough to drink. I was tripping on Ji'ari venom for days and the only thing I remember is Vasros. So, this got tattooed on my arm and since then i've had kinda an affinity for Ji'ari
