Forever Knight1992
Lacroix:
It's Indian legend time. Native American fairy story for children of all ages. Legend has it that when the world was young and unfinished the Great Spirit Father made the mistake of leaving his paints were his children could get at them. Raven begged Eagle to paint him as beautiful and grand as the Great Spirit had made Eagle himself, and so he did, or so he tried, but when Raven looked at his reflection in the water he didn't like what he saw. Raven became angry. He and Eagle fought, and the Great Spirit Father's paints spilled all over Raven and made him all black. Black wings, black eyes, black breast. Raven flapped his wings against the river current but the color was indelible. The water wouldn't wash it away. 'This is your punishment' said the Great Father 'for interfering with my work. Black you are and black you will stay. You will never come clean.' Not much of a legend is there children? But I rather like the moral.
