Zoey! Zoey! Have you built the ceremonial hearthstone yet?
The sun returns, and as new growth begins the youths must learn the ceremonies of their ancestors.
So, I don't know what that is, or who this guy is, or what anyone is talkin' about. Y'all care to fill me in?
I have the honor of leading my people in the celebration of new life, the return of the sun, and the kindling and renewal of lifelong bonds.
We get to build a ceremonial hearthstone and lay out the bloody hearts of all the stuff we kill to prove who loves who the most!
Finish mission
Zoey, do you know anything about the giant, flaming furnace surrounded with intestines and animal hearts, within smelling distance of my house?
It's a hearthstone, L.T. The kids—
New plan. I don't care what it is, how it got here, or why it's here. In fact, officially, I haven't noticed it and it doesn't exist.
Have fun. Don't call me if something terrible happens.

Now, we call upon the honored spirits of our sacred ancestors to honor the sacred bonds and give us the strength to pass on our ebullient life force to our progeny for another year.
And then Daro sets the animal traps and Taro and I wait in ambush, and then we slaughter anything that comes near and then we eat cookies!
Well… I'm glad y'all kids are so involved in your community.

Well kids, did you have fun at the Ceremonial Hearthstone this year?
We got lots of hearts this year and we did better than any other youths and Taro was keeping the kidneys and livers too but that's not part of the ceremony it's weird.
The warrior's light shines upon you and your well-earned spoils of combat. You will make fine warriors one day. Um, that is pretty weird though about Taro. He and I will talk.
