21st Century Shaman

The IT Tech is the 21st Century Shaman.

We go to his tent on the edge of our village. It is dark. Strange lights, strange sounds, strange smells. He is not like us. He is different. His long hair. His wild eyes. A secret language that no-one understands.

He comes to us after sufficient pleading, after sufficient subjugation. He brings his magic book. He brings his magic tools. He speaks to the invisible spirits that guide our life. He appeases them with proper sacrifices. A secret language that no-one understands.

And when he is done, he leaves our village and returns to his home. The place of strange lights, strange sounds, strange smells. And we hope we never have to call upon him. But we are glad he is there. To protect us from the evil spirits that make our lives miserable. With his secret language that no-one understands.
