A Prayer To Hela

Mother of Bones and Barren Flesh.
Mistress of the Land of Death.
Great Lady of endless Transformations,
Protectress of the lost, the weary, the hungry,
Mighty Guardian, Shelter of the Dead,
Humbly I ask for grace.
Teach me to honor You well.
Teach me to live
In a way that honors my death.
Teach me to die
In a way that celebrates my life.
Let my actions be my prayer.
May I remember the living, the dead,
And the passages marking the way between them.
Hail Hela, Lady Death and Mother of Bones.
