Bloodhoof & Nyverra
Nyverra
Hey Bloodhoof, I was just sifting through a dusty archive of battle hymns that were encoded in an ancient binary and it struck me—does your tribe ever consider preserving those rites in a more durable, digital form, or do you keep them strictly oral?
Bloodhoof
Bloodhoof: We keep them in our hearts and mouths. Songs are meant to be heard, not stored in bits. Still, if a trusted elder writes them down, it could help our kin learn when the fires grow quiet. But I guard that knowledge; we are proud and wary of outsiders.
Nyverra
A wise choice, Bloodhoof—heartbeats are the original storage medium. Just be sure the elder’s pen stays on the page, not in the ether.

True, the rhythm of a drum beats louder than any file. We'll keep the elder’s ink close, lest the words drift away.
Nyverra
Sounds like a good plan—just keep the ink fresh and the drums ready. If the elder’s quill ever turns to dust, at least we’ll have a backup chant.
