Description

He was fifteen when the priests of his village took him from his mother. His father was a foreigner, whom his mother had come back form the city married to. He was a scholar, taught his wife how to read, and about the ways of the Old Gods. He died when his son was very young.
The Anwar was fifteen, the village suffered from an outbreak of a plague. They decided they d=need to give an offering to the God of Death. The Keeper of the Wheel. They took the boy, and put him though a series of brutal cleansings for a fortnight. After this, they took him the crumbling temple of the God. They chained him there, half starved, and dehydrated, and did their ceremony, offering him to the God in exchange for the lives of the village.
The God came, hearing the pleas of the boy. Found this unwilling victim of the selfish people of the village. The boy offered his life for them anyway....more worried about his friends, and his mother than himself. He was dying when the God found him. The God was disgusted by this, foresaw a happy life for the Boy's widowed mother, but refused his aid to the men who had offered this child's life to him. He took the boy with him when he left that place. Breathed life back into his deprived body. he decided he was going to train himself a new priest, one who would know the truth of being a Priest to him. Who would truly know his God...
There will be more of this tale in art...
