What's the game all about?
Some say the world will end in fire, some say in ice...
But fire and ice can also signal a new beginning. Shamans and healers from all over the Kawani lands use both flame and water to bless, protect, and heal.
Your challenge for this contest is to write a blessing, either water or fire-based, to encourage healing, growth, cleansing or protection for a place, object or Soquili.
It may be in the form of a song, a chant, a poem...but it must be words. Pictures will not do for this contest.
Your entry should be no longer than 300 words.

Your blessing:
Water falls, water rises
Keeper of life in all disguises.
Lift thy self from the tide
Wind of East be thy guide.
Find me where the Earth is parched
Where your feet have not marched.

Bringing your aid and healing power.
Quench the thirst,
Restore the life,
Come forth now to end the strife.

Username: LydaLynn Your blessing:Mother water bless thy children
Ever changing, ever constant, ever giving
The tide of blood runs as the ocean’s currents
Every changing, ever constant, ever giving
Each drop a blessing of life unto a barren land
Ever changing, ever constant, ever giving
Pain is fleeting, joy rides on waves of life
Ever changing, ever constant, ever giving
Embrace thy daughter as she moves with thee
Ever changing, ever constant, ever giving
And bless her efforts that the fruit may be sweet
Ever changing, ever constant, ever giving
That the sacrifice be not in vain
Ever changing, ever constant, ever giving
Welcome life unto the lands and unto the waters
Ever changing, ever constant, ever giving
With the oldest of rites we call upon water’s power
Ever changing, ever constant, ever giving
Bless this labor and touch these lives
Ever changing, ever constant, ever giving
That the new children walk with thy grace
Ever changing, ever constant, ever giving
And are filled ever with thy blessings
Ever changing, ever constant, ever giving
Mother water bless thy children [[ This is designed as a birthing chant. The midwife and any other mares around would help the mother chant this while in labor. It is designed to help keep the mother's attention from the pain of birth while also acting as a blessing on the foals. The chant is repeated throughout the birthing process.]] Which mare do you invite to join you? Sunset Kirin Which familiar do you invite to join you? Porcupine, Crow
