Swiftcurrent Creek survivor

Our common religion is tied with our ancestors. His face took on a critical, atheistic light. The story is that an eagle took clay and molded it into the shape of a wolf, and then lightning struck it and created the First Wolf, Mut, or 'mother'. She was said to be the color of sacred red ochre. I think it's more likely the Tuq was made from wolves traveling over a frozen sea far to the west.

Mut was said to have created the Mist, or the dream world where spirits live. Along with that she created the Thunder Beings, the Rainbow Serpent... He seemed a little bored by his pack's beliefs. They had never resonated with him. Anyways. As the cost of having so much Power, the snow stained her fur permanently white. 'Ov', 'ev', 'av', are suffixes to a name and are homages to this belief. I have a daughter who knows far better about this than I do, Dovev finished with a grin.
I was there just to protect them.
