“Warrior’s Prayer Oba, guide me, that I might do thy bidding. Make me the swift and deadly instrument of your will. Let my aim be true, and my cause righteous. Make my hand faster than those who seek to do me harm. Grant me victory over my foes, that I might protect your people. And, Oba, if today is truly the day you call me home, Then let me die with my foe prostrate at my feet.”
