His heart thudded painfully in his chest. He stumbled throughout the room, tripping over pillows and low tables, searching for someone to come find him. The sweet smell of stewed sea prunes broiled from somewhere he could not quite see, and he drifted toward the scent.

Hides were draped on the walls and the floors. The seal oil brimmed and burned at opposite ends of their home. Two soapstone lamps crackled to life when he dipped his head in. вЂњYes, mom!вЂќ Hakoda replied with enthusiasm. вЂњDonвЂ™t forget that you two planned a fishing trip together today.вЂќ вЂњYour father is waiting for you,вЂќ she said as he reached her at the entrance. A basket of dried seal jerky was at her side. Her crystal blue eyes were bright as she waved at him to come inside. Kanna had dark hair that was braided into loops that met at the back of her head. When he turned, he realized how much younger she looked. вЂњHakoda!вЂќ his mother called from their igloo behind them. The white and spotted fur was a familiar sight, and some of it peeked out from just under his parkaвЂ™s sleeve. His hands were covered in mittens and cushioned in the warmth of snow leopard caribou hide. Pure white, unblemished, sparkling through the curtain of early morning sunlight. Now his dreams showed him powdered snow that coated the icy ground. Collapsed and imploded into shards of ice until they reconvened into a new picture. She had returned to her home where she belonged. Past rivers where he chased salmon bass swimming upriver, through forests where the leaves crinkled with the weight of heavy hoarfrost. The wife disappeared and the husband searched for her to no avail. I wonвЂ™t help you.вЂ™вЂќ His motherвЂ™s voice rang as she continued the tale. I will not eat fish and I do not eat a whaleвЂ™s flesh. вЂњThe wife exclaimed, вЂI donвЂ™t eat from the sea. In the harsh climate of the Southern Water Tribe, there was little on land that would be enough to feed families of people. The man went hunting, as all men of the tribe were wont to do. There was more of course, and like many of the tales from his childhood, there was a lesson buried within the words. вЂњHe would keep her warm if only she would agree to be his wife.вЂќ вЂњWell, he stumbled upon the dwelling of the tundra birds, and he made a deal with one of them,вЂќ he said. вЂњWhat happened next?вЂќ a child sitting next to Hakoda asked. вЂњHe could not find a wife among his people, and he felt all alone.вЂќ Almost as if what he was listening to was from an uncertain part of himself. вЂњHe was desperate, you see,вЂќ the dream version of his mother said to the group of children that listened in front of her. However, the tale about the man who had made a tundra bird his wife was his favorite. The hunter that had been dedicated enough to chase it made it back to earth to tell the tribe what had happened. Hunters chased after them, spears in hand, bird arrows in tow.ДЄ polar leopard escaped in one story, leaping into the night sky to become the constellation where the brightest star in the north marked its passage. The legends told of polar leopards that bounded across the arctic, panting heavily with every twist and turn. They sounded fantastical when he was a child, but as much as they were spun tales, they were also true. In his dreams, he remembered her and the legends she and his mother would tell.
