This is gonna be in 1st person ok:)

As I trudge up the hill to the elders council building I look at the land around me everywhere the usually simple rural folk of the clan are bickering constantly. I am the first woman shaman in a long line of men i guess that is why no one will heed my warnings. I have been up this hill many a time wanting to make the elders believe in my story but they won't and I warned them so it is not my fault if the gods choose to punish them. "Elders of the great council of the clan I have come here in one final plea, for I have foreseen a rival clan on the march to our very own territory so I beceech ye to listen for what I speek is from the gods,if we do not start acting like brothers then we shall fail to exsist." I stare at them for some time what they see can not be described for it is what is to come if they do not put their petty differences behind them, and that is death. one elder speaks and says to me that I was sent from the devil and it is not my place to fill there heads with visions bearing no truth. but the others stare at me in disbelief until one gentle old man called grandpa by all speaks."I have seen many shamans come and pass and just because she be a woman you pay no heed to her warnings when you all know that what she says is the truth you should be ashamed to call yourselves the leaders of this clan." all around the hut faces of the elders turn red in embarressment while I quietly smile to the one called grandpa. Then I speak"gentlemen I believe if you repent with your very heart and soul that you can recieve the gods foregivness in time to mend your ways and win this battle, so I beceech ye to come together all and stop the fighting so that we may once again live in peace and harmony." The elders and all the clan came to their sences the battle was won but many were lost including grandpa but now all is well and my new apprentice just happens to be a girl child named ellen.

ok now rules:
1. respect others
2. do not make other characters feel inferior
3. you must only have one apprentice per lifetime
4. you may be the mouthpiece of the "gods" but please don't use it to your advantage alone.

Hows that?
