Two barbarians were bound with thorns, the sharp little spikes pierced their skin, and blood flowed as several burly men threw them to the ground. Apart from trembling all over, they did not dare to struggle like lambs.
"Blood sacrifice! Blood sacrifice! Blood sacrifice..."
At this moment, a middle-aged priest, dressed in silver animal skins and with a dozen colorful feathers on his head, walked to the front of the altar.
Everyone immediately quieted down, and the atmosphere became solemn.
He first prayed devoutly to the gods and then loudly pronounced the sins of the two:
"The God of Flames is supreme, the embodiment of fire. Let these two sinful souls be purified in the Divine Fire!"
He took out an ancient-style metallic object engraved with flame patterns, walked to the altar, prostrated himself on the ground, and prayed devoutly again. Only then did he get up and gently touched the flames of the altar with the sacrificial object in his hand.
"Boom..."
