knowit I appreciate the concern but this isn't based off the lenape (false) myth OR the cherokee tale 😭 I understand if you wanna flame me for adapting indigenous culture into the vn, but at the risk of doxxing myself, it's based off one of the local nimiipuu stories the elders tell from the rez near where I attend college. I picked this one over the story where raven turns himself into a pine needle, gets swallowed, and then birthed, and then steals the flame, because. uh. well. that's a lot harder to incorporate narratively, and the other story is about beavers stealing fire from pine trees, which isn't exactly relevant. If I had known there was a misattributed colonized version of a different tribes story floating around out there, I probably wouldn't have included it at all, but I promise that I'm not just throwing in whatever without understanding or researching it.
