Emberwood if he's a king, he's a priest and god too

"do you know the nature of a coyote? it is to take. it is to thieve. it is to give nothing, answer to no higher power, serve no god. what right have they to walk in our land? to walk near it? who commands them? who commands us, ashlar? who gave us a place in this valley? was in the god of coyotes? or was in the god of bears, who walk in ursus and live among us? you see them as worthy, worthy in the way that we are. but they are not. they are inferior beings. open your eyes, finally, at last, ashlar. listen to the words of those in ursus. we are here to hold what the bears have given us. and we are to serve them with blood. you decide if it will be theirs, or your own. we have made our choice."
