supercanaries:

Legends has it that this totem was one of five created by the Gods and given to the five great tribes of Zambesi. This totem harnesses the ashes or … the life force of the animal kingdom. It was passed down to me from my mother and from hers before that. I was recruited by the JSA and I realized that the world was much larger than just my village and that there were people beyond its borders who also needed protection.
