The Akashi will be sorting out the best pick of the elk herd take some pack members to take down the elk for the feast. Meanwhile, the alpha and beta will help each other prepare for the ceremony with any wolf to help by their choosing. Placing colors on each other's pelts and putting flowers, feathers,e.t.c. They will dismiss their help and go take one last hunt as shakiras of something small, but enough where they can take it down themselves.
After their little hunt they will set back to the beach by the lake with the beta going first, and alpha going last. The beta will be asked if they accept to help control the pack, help protect the alpha, and aid for support and secuirty. Once the beta accepts the pack will howl for their acceptance. The alpha will be next and asked if they accept their bloodline from the first alpha of the druids to lead this pack through fear and chaos. To put the pack over your own needs and be Alpha of the Druids until their last breath. Once the alpha accepts all wolves will bow to the new Alpha and Beta.

AFter that the apprentice will given a feather behind their ear to establish the peacekeeper and mediator ranking for them. They will be praised and worshipped by the pack including the alpha. They are highly valued.. When the sun sets the apprentice will take the walk to the lake.. A silent walk to gather their thoughts to the beach preparing to be accepted by the ancestors.
The newly shaman will take a drink in the lake welcoming the ancestors from above. They will open their mind to let them in. They will sleep in the soft and let themselves dream of their fate, visions, oncoming omens..
In the morning, their mentor/ older shman will spread the sand from underneath the younger shaman as a blessing and to welcome them to their new adulthood.
Beorns Ceremony:
The beorn or beorns that take over the former beorns place will have to dominate and fight the older ones. If they cannot do that then they will be demoted to shakiras. If accomplished, they are to display the blood of their mentors and their own as right of passage.
Only the strongest can be beorn and most have to make the toughest decision..
After they will wear body paint and accept any challenges from a wolf, but if they lose the former beorn will take their old position.
The body paint and blood will embrace that they are druid/warrior. DO not fail or you will dishonor the ancestors and youself.
If they will, the night they will stand guard outside of camp and howl to the ancestors at the moon's highest in victory and triumph.
Akashi Ceremony:
Akashi or Akashis will formerly take their mentors place as they step down to be shakiras once again. They will start the day earlier than everyone to find the best elk, maybe bison to initiate to be an akashi.
Once they find their target and take it down. They will wear their prey's blood in their fur as a right of passage. They will take the antler or orn as a prize of their first hunt as akashi and may take an piece to wear a jewlery in their ear.
The rest of the night they will eat the prey with their pack being praised and blessed with the shakiras rewarding them with their own catches for them.
Shakira Ceremony:
The apprentices becoming shakiras will have to start the day with close testing of their weaknesses and strengths. The mentors will progress their trainging from the day they started to now. They will report to the alpha and beta.. The apprentices will be welcomed by the alpha as shakiras after their training.
Then after the pack will take the new shakiras on a hunt for an elk as the shakiras will lead the hunt. After the kill, the shakiras will be dressed with the blood of their kill and then will be blessed by their mentors then the alpha and beta.
The last duty as an apprentice/new shakira is to sleep outside the camp or explore the territory as new adults.. But the day must end at the beach with the apprentices watching the waves lap the shore to sleep as apprentices and wake as shakiras..
prophecy:
The scars of the one that bears it as a memorial and the one that wears it as perseverance will collide from birth til the recognition.. Together they will bring a balance of power and knowledge, but only one can stay on the top. But can never be apart that brings the day of the dead.
