Raven Transformations: Pacific Northwest Masks
📖 The Story
In the Pacific Northwest, Raven found the sun, moon, and stars hidden in a cedar box by a greedy chief. He transformed into a pine needle, was swallowed by the chief's daughter, and was reborn as her son. Then he cried until the chief opened the box — and Raven stole the light for all people. The trickster is not a villain. He is the force that redistributes what hoarding has hidden.
