Mommy, mommy am I a cow?
"No dear, u are Tauren. And one day you will be a powerfull shaman."
"Now lay asleep with nature child, tomorrow u'll start ur training and u need to be fit."
Ok, mommy...
---
What exactly IS a shaman?
"A shaman abides the law of our mother"
U mean that I need to clean myself up before I eat? Hmpf, my mom is always fussing about that...
"Hahaha, no child, not UR mother, OUR mother. Nature !"
ooooooh, yeah... I know HER... I guess...
"Well when u truely know her u'll know what a shaman is"
So when can we go meet her?
"I'm glad u asked, first u need to know how cruel nature is.."
"U see those birds over there?"
Hmhm, the pretty ones with the pink feathers?
"Hihihi, yes the pretty ones with the pink feathers. U need to catch 10 of them."
What do I do with them when I have them?
"well u need to take their life"
Iiiiuw, I'm not doing that...
"Do u want to eat tonight?"
Yes...
"Well I suggest u make sure u catch enough pretty birds with pink feathers so we can eat them."
I'll get in trouble ...
"Hahaha, no child, that is the way of nature. We eat other species to live."
Are u sure u are a shaman?
"YES! Now go!"
---
Mommy, mommy, mommy!
"Yorga, why are u screaming? And why aren't u in shaman training?"
That shaman is crazy !
He wants me to go and catch pretty pink birds and then he wants me to take their life !
Please mommy, don't make me go back to that crazy man. He can't be serious!
"There there child, u have gotten your first lesson today. Nature is not always kind.
Now go catch those birds and provide our tribe with food."
But mommy...
"GO, make us proud, we are counting on u for dinner."

"Yorga, come forward child"
"Today u will leave our tribe and seek out mother's will."
"U will learn the way of the totems"
"Walk with the earthmother !"
