+ | Growing up in the shadow of Spider Rock on the edge of Canyon de Chelly National Park, my grandfather would often chide my older sister and I with "The top of Spider Rock is white from the sun-bleached bones of Dine children who did not behave themselves!" when I had not done what I was asked. Despite this "warning" I spent my days scouring the canyon for a way up to the top of the Rock or exploring the old cave dwellings built by my people high on the canyon walls. | ||
+ | <br><br> | ||
+ | Late one afternoon while exploring these dwelling caves, I made my way up to a stepped ledge, high above the canyon floor and for a moment looking in awe at the vista below me. As I gazed around something glimmering behind me caught my eye. Moving towards it I was shocked to see a silken cord hanging down from the top of the rock tower. | ||
+ | <br><br> | ||
+ | Pulling on the cord with all my strength convinced me it would bear my weight and so tying it around me I used it to climb higher up the tower. Reaching the top after a suprisingly short time I discovered not sun bleached bones but a secluded oasis. In the centre of the oasis stood a roughly hewn obelisk covered with strange symbols. | ||
+ | <br><br> | ||
+ | I reached out to touch the stone as the sun finally dipped below the edge of the plateau and a fiery glow erupted from within the obelisk. The last thing i saw was the outline of my outstretched hand against glowing rock as unconsciousness took me. | ||
+ | <br><br> | ||
+ | A voice like the wind whispered to me "You are the first of my children to seek me in an age. I see in your heart you are bold and fair. I shall teach you the ways of the Spider that you may lead and protect my children." As i lay there my mind filled with strange visions of ancient Dine heroes and silken threads seemed to spin around me and through me and I knew my life would never be the same.<br><br> | ||
