when wakinu was exiled from his tribe for his fight with wakini, he got lost in snow country. he left a trail of snow that stretched from earth to the sky and his people forgave him 'cause he forged a path to the bridge of the dead, that led to the eternal hunting grounds.
i think you're that bear, uncle. i think i am the dead thing that came before the snow in the sky. you can't forge anything in a dead thing, but i'll still be your boy.
[ all at once he feels all the years of his age, and very sad. old sadness, new sadness. ]
I am the dead thing which eats his own people.
You are endlessness, I think. I smell this in you. Death and renewal over and over. We are things we did not choose to be, but we make the most of what we are anyway.
I would choose you every time, though. I sense that I have in my lives before, and that I will again. I think I am always meant to find you, because we are the same thing in two bodies.
When we die, my people go to the Sandhills. I think we always ask go to back to find each other, so we can finally go together. I am always yours.
