Dance of Death

Description

Artistic expression isn't limited to language and sound. The age-old tradition of dancing brings joy to both the dancer and the spectator. Dancers express powerful emotions by controlling their bodies with utmost precision. They can move as forcefully as an avalanche or as fluidly as water. At their peak, dancers can use their fast feet to move slip through an enemy's defenses. Enemies might even be entranced enough by the dance to be brought to their end with no resistance. That is why this particular set of footwork is called the "Dance of Death."
