Chương 42: The Headless Red Snake

"Bring fresh cold water."

The voice of the Grand Shaman revealed her age.

"Bring more bamboo leaves."

As she gave instructions, the other shamans bowed their heads respectfully and obeyed.

The Grand Shaman's face was covered in deep wrinkles left by time.

The tattoos etched across her entire body and face were the symbol of the Grand Shaman.

The Grand Shaman had stayed up all night assisting Nanaluk.
