EXCERPT:
Beside a riverbed, an old man sits lost in his thoughts;
he is SEATTLE, Chief of the Suqamish Indians. He remembers
his boyhood when his grandfather foretold him of his destiny,
when he was told of the Web Of Life and his duties as it's
protector. The Web of Life, they believe, is the symbiotic
connection that exists between all living things on Earth;
the sacred balance of life.
Upon the next day's passing, Seattle signs the Port Eliot
treaty relinquishing ownership of Suquamish ancestral lands
to the United States government in favor of a small reservation
to the North. He sees that a war would ultimately prove futile
and wishes instead to preserve his people's lifeblood through
appeasement. In a final speech, Seattle explains that man
comes from the land and that all men share equally the responsibility
to protect the Web of Life on Earth.
150 years later, Dr. Richard Hawk, a lowly archaeology
professor, explores the forests of his ancestors. Here he discovers
an intriguing artifact he believes has spiritual significance.
He takes his disovery to the one person he knows who might identify
it: a beautiful shamness names River Song, who once headed the
Bureau of Indian Affairs, and shared a past with Hawk. River Song
is less than excited to see him again, but reluctantly agrees
to take a look at his artifact. She believes it is a partial piece
of a shaman's breatplate, a very spiritual man who believesd in
a mystical star pathway to the spirit world. She tells Hawk legend
has it he will be rewarded with a night vision and a meeting with
the Soul Bearer.
