A Sermon on Orcish Issues: On Adversity
This sermon was originally delievered by the Shaman of the stronghold of Khagburdugk, Yarguk gro-Mulakh, on 4 Sun's Dawn, 3E 426. (Roleplay)
Mauloch, Father to us, his children
Gave us strength, endurance and passion
That we may crush our foes and love our kin;
Under your guidance, we have no fear!
The metal does not wait for the hammer to fall,
Nor does the fly sit idle while the spiders do crawl,
So do not be frozen with foolish fear
While adversity stalks the land like a sharpened spear.
When adversity strikes
Know that faith in Mulak is your armour;
That the rewards you reap being a fate-farmer
Shall pierce your foes hearts like a great pike.
For adversity is the test of strength from Mauloch,
That his children have will and mind of bedrock
Or else no place in Ashpit has he for thee
For those who are weak of will and soul stained tawny.
