A Matter of Hammers



When young boys felt they were ready to be Men, they were lead to the Proving Ground.

Once inside, they were ordered by to strip naked. Then they were shown the two hammers, the Hammer of War, which was the length of six Eaglewings, and the Hammer of Peace, which was the size of a frog. They had to choose which one would be used on their manhoods.

Those who chose War became the Men, who were sent out to fight wars.

Those who chose Peace were congratulated on not being stupid and got to stay home and make children.

(Thanks to Michael for the Suggestion!)
