Brother Bear Sitka's Funeral
Denahi did not answer. He placed a hand on his younger brother’s shoulder, but Kenai shook it off like a wolf shedding water.
“I’ll make it right,” Kenai whispered to the cliff. “I don’t know how. But I swear it.”
On the jagged peak where Sitka had made his final stand, the snow lay in soft, forgiving drifts. The great ice bridge he had shattered was now a scatter of blue diamonds far below. And there, carved into the living rock by the very bear that had taken his life, was a single shape: an eagle in mid-swoop, its wings spread wide as if to catch the sky.
The purpose of the ritual is to release Sitka’s spirit so he can join the Great Spirits in the northern lights.
High above, a real eagle circled once against the pale sun. Then it turned and flew west, toward the mountains that had no names.
The shaman, Tanana, stepped forward. Her voice was old and thin as winter ice, but it carried across the clearing. “A hunter does not flee the shadow. He walks into it and brings back light.” She raised a caribou antler, carved with spirals of stars and salmon. “Sitka walked into the shadow for you, Kenai. For all of us.”
Only Denahi stood beside him.
