Challenge #04710-L326: Pray Responsibly

The last, aged priest of a God is searching for an apprentice to take on the scriptures and learn the proper rites before it becomes nothing but a curiosity for scholars rather than a living, breathing practice linking people over millennia. -- Deathshead419

Karkaul, High Priest of the Volcano God, was looking for an orphan, an unwanted child, or one in bad circumstances to take under her wing. The greys of age were already showing on her temples. She needed the time to teach, and one who had no other options than to learn. Mostly because she was the last priest of the Volcano God.

It didn't help that the Volcano God was quiet, and had been for hundreds of years. Karkaul had been taught that the Volcano God was sleeping, and keeping them asleep was a good idea. The last time the Volcano God was in full power and full rage, entire cities had died.

Lives were in the balance, and Karkaul could not find a prentice.
