A living Loa, Forest Trolls people looked at the big cat squatting in front of the right side of Altar of Deities's seat of power, with his head raised high and looking down at the audience. He was a big cat with bright yellow fur and a body like a leopard. Some of them didn't know what to do. This is a god!

Unlike Zandalar where humans and spirits coexist harmoniously, in Zul'Aman and even Zul'Gurub cities like Trolls, the gods have not shown their faces to the public for a long time. Compared to temples, they prefer to stay in the wild and only occasionally appear in front of believers.👮🎈  ♘🐟

When gods appear in the city, they are no longer so ethereal, but actually standing in front of them. This always feels unreal to believers. They cannot imagine that Halazzi, which is just larger than an ordinary lynx and has brighter fur, is a god.

"Now..." Zul'ra looked at the stunned Trollss, let out a loud shout, and looked at the Trolls hunter. The Tooth-Soldierss over there also recovered from the Bobcat Spirit, and rushed over to hold the high-level hunter down.

"Tell me, what's your name?" Zul'ra looked at the high-level hunter who murdered Yogi.

"Sika." The high-level hunter had neither the ability nor the ability to resist, so he knelt on the steps dejectedly.

"Why did you murder Yogi?" Zul'ra asked calmly.

"Because I want power."

"Tell me the complete process of your murder of Yogi?"

"Four days ago in the evening..." Sika was so honest that he knocked Yogi down and sacrificed it to Eagle God Akil'zon.

After the sacrifice failed, Sika was so angry that he left the scene, but after thinking about it, he went back to clean up the altar. Although he found that Yogi's body had disappeared, he was a little worried at the time, but after a day when there was no movement, and when he heard the news that Yogi was dead, he slowly relaxed in his heart, otherwise he would not be here today.

"What do you want to say for yourself?" Zul'ra looked at the dejected Sika and couldn't help but ask.

"No." Sika raised his head and glanced at the big lynx squatting in front of the seat of power. He lowered his head in frustration. There was a god here, so it was useless to explain anything.

"Very good. Your confession has earned you a pleasant death sentence. I will execute you. Do you have any thoughts?" Zul'ra leaned forward slightly on the stone seat and looked at Sika, who was being held and kneeling at the bottom of the steps.

"I remember that you never issued an order prohibiting blood sacrifice, why did you execute me for this?" Sika thought of something and pleaded with a trace of hope.

"I don't have it, but Zul'jin does. When I challenged Zul'jin, I should have said something like this, "My challenge is not for personal grudges."Zul'ra looked at the Sika who was arguing, and raised his eyes to look at all the Trollss on Altar of Deities.

"Cannibalism and blood sacrifice are not allowed. This is the order given by Zul'jin. I have never changed it because it can unite us. Today, I am here and it is necessary to declare these two prohibitions to all of you. We are Trolls. We are strong because we are united, we respect gods, and we respect knowledge."

"Nature is cruel, we should become stronger, but becoming stronger does not mean sacrificing innocent people. If everything is the law of the jungle, then here today, if I kill you, does it mean that I am stronger than you? No, I will execute you today because you do not have the qualities of a strong person. You murdered Yogi."

"Yogi To you and many people, he may not be a strong man, but to his wife and his two children, he is a strong man. He is like the roof of a house, protecting his family from wind and rain." Regarding Zul'ra, most Trolls couldn't help but ponder. Everyone's identity is relative. If you rely on brute force to bully the weak, does that mean you have to accept bullying when you meet a stronger person?

"A truly strong person should do different things at different times and places. The only thing that does not change is that he can become the support and support of others. That is the strong person. Tell me, do you want to become such a strong person?" Zul'ra looked at the silent Trolls.

"Yes." Haimuxi and others couldn't help but blurt out.

"Yes." In an instant, Trolls people spoke one after another, putting aside their personal selfishness and becoming the support and support of their companions. Such strength is indeed aspirational and recognized.

"Very good, Guide of the Dead is here today, Halazzi, I beg you to be our witness." Zul'ra looked at the Trolls who answered him, and turned to half-kneeling towards the squatting lynx.

"My eyes are fixed on your testimony." The big lynx raised its head.

"I am Zul'ra Jin, King of the Amani. I will lead my people to become strong. From today on, my people should be proud of unity and mutual help, because truly strong people strengthen themselves."

"My people, you should be proud of your hard work. Only food obtained through hard work is the sweetest and can best meet your needs. Other people's things cannot always satisfy your needs."

"When you meet gods, you should be pious, because gods give you knowledge and help so that you can better walk on this land."

"As a father, you have to raise your children, because your children will depend on you in the future."

"As a child, you have to support your parents because they raised you to adulthood."

"As a king, father and partner, you should set an example for your people, children and other partners. When the king cannot shoulder the responsibility, the people will be separated. When the father cannot shoulder the responsibility, the children will leave. When the partners cannot be harmonious, the family will no longer be peaceful."

"You must respect knowledge and the strong. Only when you can see your own shortcomings can you continue to make progress and become stronger."

"Today, by Spirit of Justice, Guide of the Dead Halazzi is here to bear witness for us. We will abide by the above seven agreements and jointly seek our glory. Amani will last forever." Zul'ra stretched out his arm and pointed to the Trollss at the big lynx Halazzi, making an agreement with them.

"Amani will last forever." Faced with Zul'ra's words, Trollss shouted one after another, because today's words are like a promise, allowing them to see a tangible future. Amani will give up the bad habits of blood sacrifice and cannibalism, truly unite together, and seek a true glory.

"Thank you, thank you, Spirit of Justice, Guide of the Dead, Guardian of the Family, please allow me to call you, respected Halazzi." Zul'ra looked at the cheering Trolls, stood up and nodded slightly to Halazzi who was squatting next to him.

"I am also honored to see Amani's revival and to be the guardian of the family." The big lynx tilted his head slightly towards Zul'ra and accepted the title of Zul'ra.

"Come, cheer! Cheer for Halazzi who walks in Amani and protects the family." Zul'ra shouted loudly to everyone's joy.

In the case of the seven-pronged agreement between Zul'ra and Forest Trolls and the appearance of Halazzi, the original murderer Sika and the victim Yogi became insignificant because the meaning of the incident itself was such.
