"Go on," Lana said.
"Normally, this would be done before our shamans," Xyshari said, "as they would communicate to the spirits on behalf of the couple seeking to be joined. They would present the pendants of Ro'ta, the symbol that they were considered adults in the pride, to the shaman. The couple would face each other, and intertwine one of their hands for the entirety of the ceremony," she said.
"Not so bad thus far," Lana mused.
"The shaman will speak to the aether, and then, take the pendants and attach them to a ceremonial dagger," Xyshari said. "He then offers the dagger to the Cathar to his right, first. They take the dagger and hold it to their to-be mate's throat, but do not draw blood."
Maybe I'm foolish, maybe I'm blind
Thinking I can see through this to see what's behind
Got no way to prove it, so maybe I'm lying
Take a look in the mirror, what do you see
Can you see it clearer, or are you deceived in what you believe?
Don't ask my opinion, don't ask me to lie
Then beg for forgiveness for making you cry
'cause I'm no prophet or Messiah
You should go looking somewhere higher
I'm only human, I make mistakes
I'm only human, I do what I can
I'm only human, that's all it takes to put the blame on me
Don't put the blame on me
