Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil

In the heart of the southern region of the Dark Daniera Forest, a vibrant celebration unfolded.

The Amazonians, immersed in the festivities, danced joyously around a grand campfire. The flames flickered and swayed in harmony with the rhythmic beats of the drums that resonated through the air. The enchanting melodies of the folk music weaved their way into the souls of all who listened, their ethereal sound enhanced by magical instruments.

Amidst the revelry, Eren donned his socializing mask, transforming into the friendliest outsider the Amazonians had ever encountered. Laughter and song flowed effortlessly from his lips, casting doubt on the tales they had heard about him.

The mask of socializing the butcher had put on was impeccable.

It was as though he had gotten completely rid of his cold and callous persona, revealing a completely different being. To those who had fought alongside or against him, witnessing Eren engaging with the Amazonians would have caused them to question if he truly was the same Grimdawn they knew.

Encouraged by the Amazonians, Eren joined their spirited dancing by the crackling fire. Marla and Almera took it upon themselves to teach him the intricacies of Amazonian folk dance. Following their lead, Eren swiftly grasped the unique style and movements, immersing himself in the rhythm of the celebration.

The Amazonian dance encompassed graceful back-and-forth motions, interspersed with rhythmic foot stomps and synchronized hand claps. It harmonized seamlessly with the vibrant beats resounding in the background. Eren adeptly embraced the dance, matching Marla and Almera's steps with exuberance.

The Amazonians, filled with delight, marveled at how effortlessly the outsider assimilated their culture. As the night unfolded, Eren partnered with various Amazonians, each step a testament to his deepening connection with their traditions.

Callista graciously stepped in to dance with Eren, giving Marla and Almera a well-deserved respite. Together, they moved with intimate abandon, igniting the celebration to new heights.

With each passing moment, the festivities intensified. Bathed in the calming glow of moonlight and a tapestry of stars, the Amazonians expressed their reverence for their goddess and the surrounding nature through their melodic songs and captivating dances.

As the night embraced them, the beats of a beloved Amazonian folk song echoed through the air, stirring a surge of energy among the revelers. It was a cherished anthem that resonated deep within their souls, fueling their collective spirit.

Amidst the fervent celebration, a resounding cheer erupted from the Amazonians, signaling the beginning of a cherished song known as "Embrace." The energy in the air was palpable as they gathered closer around the blazing campfire, ready to immerse themselves in the enchanting melody.

"In the wild, where spirits roam untamed,

Our hearts alight, a free spirit unchained.

Through the forest, we dance with delight,

Embracing the fresh flower scent, oh so bright."

A strong and commanding male voice pierced through the crowd, delivering the opening verse with unwavering passion. The heartfelt words resonated deeply within the hearts of his fellow Amazonians, eliciting a wave of applause. As the drums and accompanying instruments joined in, the tempo of the song gradually intensified, carrying everyone along on its vibrant waves.

Then, a serene and melodious female voice took center stage, offering a gentler yet profoundly devoted rendition of the chorus.

"Magic surrounds us, in nature's embrace,

We are Amazonians, singing in grace.

With flowing water and ferocious fire,

Under calming moonlight, our souls aspire."

The female singer's tender vocals were met with harmonious support from a chorus of Amazonian singers, their voices intertwining in perfect harmony. The air was charged with energy as the dancers clapped and moved with renewed vigor, enthralled by the song's captivating progression.

"Chilly winds whisper, the earth's warmth in our core,

Nourished souls, we celebrate, forevermore.

With the joy of nature, we gather as one,

Seeking the goddess' blessings till the morning sun."

As the male and female voices merged, their shared verses brought an exquisite synergy to the performance. Eren, having danced with two of the Matriarchs, found himself captivated by Valeria's unexpected participation.

The Matriarch's intricate movements infused the dance with both complexity and joy, inviting the other Amazonians to embrace the challenge. Determined not to be outdone, Eren fearlessly employed his time-element spells to flawlessly match Valeria's steps, seamlessly blending into the group dance.

"In the face of tempests fierce, our faith stands strong,

The embrace of the Great Mother, where we belong.

Unbinding chains, we dance and sing with might,

Trusting in the unknown, guided by her light.

For a future bright, together we unite,

In reverence of Nature, our eternal rite.

In her loving arms, solace and joy we glean,

Our Mother's grace, our spirits set serene."

The tempo soared higher, and the female dancers gracefully separated themselves from the crowd. The men, their spirits ignited by the pulsating drum beats, united in synchronized stomps and chest thumps, accentuating the rhythm of the song. Each powerful movement resonated with their unyielding dedication, reverberating through the forest.

"As Amazonians, we worship with honor and pride,

The Great Mother, our goddess, forever by our side.

Within her embrace, peace and prosperity reside,

Living life fully, our souls are eternally tied.

With hearts brimming with joy, our spirits take flight,

We sing and dance beneath the celestial light.

For a brighter morrow, we strive with all our might,

Embracing the divine, in nature's harmonious delight."

With the final verse, a collective surge of emotion swept through the Amazonians. A bountiful amount of invisible faith energy was generated that disappeared just as silently.

The Amazonians' unwavering faith in peace, prosperity, and the divine nature propelled them forward. They sang, danced, and reveled in the abundance of life, bound together by their devotion to Mother Nature's guidance.

As the triumphant notes of the song subsided, the Amazonians ceased their movements, momentarily enveloped in profound silence. Then, a jubilant eruption of cheers erupted, echoing through the forest, a testament to the collective spirit and unbreakable unity of the Amazonian community.

Galen, once skeptical of Eren, stood in awe, his prejudices shattered. He extended a hand in genuine friendship, acknowledging Eren's resilience and skill in mastering the complex folk dance.
