~~* Long ago, or so it was told *~~ A young boy approached his father.. Knowing his father was considered wise by all the tribe, the boy asked the brave warrior elder, " Father, I have heard our names are given for the hour of our birth" " Is this true ? " The wise man rubs his chin in thought & smiles at his sons curiosity.. The father nods " Yes that is apart of it.. " " It has been our way since before your great grandfathers time. " " At the hour of each child's birth, the father walks to the village edge.. " " The first animal seen was sent to tell the father of the child's spirit guide. " Your Great Grand Father was so called * Prowling Wolf *" " To this day by our fires stories are told of his cunning in the hunt." " My father was called * Soaring Eagle * " " He was noble in action as a great, long sited, War Chief. " " Your mouther, She is rightly called * Dancing Fawn *" " I will attest to her beauty & grace ." " I, your father am known as * Watchful Owl * " " I am now honored as Council Elder, Adviser to the Chief..... " " So tell me, Egg Sucking Weasel, why do you ask ?"
