The First Sand Burial

A tale of the Shamō Temple

Written by: General Longwei Xiao

The tribe had traveled too long, through too much, when they first came to that land. The eastern desert was a harsh place, rampant with bandits and storms, yet they had fled from the northwest when the reach of the Earth King grew too harsh and long.

However, the chief would not make it. Prince Iken had them camp at the base of a great sand-mountain, in view of the Great Rock where all navigation pointed, and the tribe’s finest caretakers tried every medicine they owned. Chief Igider had been sickened by a fouled wound.

Kneeling before the base of the mountain, the sickly chief clasped his hands and offered faith to the desert gods. Iken stood vigil, that day, until twilight consumed the sun’s last lights. He waited patiently for his father to finish, thinking of where they might acquire finer cures.

Chief Igider of a name lost to time, ruler of the Hami Tribe, did not rise from that prayer. Instead, the mountain of sand and stone swallowed him whole as he took his last breath, and Iken realized how small they were before it. He dug for nine days and ten nights before he found his father’s remains.
