Description
Langwana in these day’s is a forgotten tropical island somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. The langwan nation lived here in peace for hundreds of years, and they have a powerful kingdom. However today is not found on the map. The conquistadors conquered and enslaved them, and the langwan culture destroyed. The piece is an ancient ritual, a sacrifice to the god Langwa, who is the lord of eternally time.
