Chapter 51 Sisters

• "This is silver, the mundanes say it has value. After discussion with my Elders we found an agreement between lycan and Miccosukee tradition. I can choose to end my life. It is better that one dies than all.
• I have never lied to any of you. This is the only weapon, I know of, on this island and it is destined for myself. You have been so wrapped up in lycan tradition you have forgotten there some other sides to this argument and that is my people. I ask only one thing for me to choose my way to die."
• The gathering was stunned. Arian fought to free himself, to no avail. Jedidiah resheathed the knife. Holding the knife by the sheath he knelt stabbing the knife into the ground by its hilt. He removed the leather sheath exposing the silver blade to the moonlight. The long blade stood upright from the ground. The boy began to sing and dance around the blade. Dutch recognized the song as did Jedidiah's mate. They had heard it once before. It was Jed's death chant.
