Meanwhile in Virginia: The native americans are harvesting and the grand ruler of the tribe, Blackfire is now back from the battle between the Massawomecks and the Powhatans.
Native Americans:
Hega hega ya-hi-ye-hega
Ya-hi-ye-ne-he hega
Hega hega ya-hi-ye-hega
Ya-hi-ye-ne-he hega
One of the scouts sees Blackfire and he blows his horn for the message. Another scout hears of the horn, then he runs to a different cliffside and blows his horn for the women who are harvesting carn to hear. The women hear the horn and are happy to hear that their chieftess has returned safely.
Women:
Steady as the beating drum
Singing to the cedar flute
Seasons go and seasons come
Bring the corn and bear the fruit
The Fishermen see the Chieftess and the warriors and are very happy to see her win the battle.
Native Americans:
By the waters sweet and clean
Where the mighty sturgeon lives
Plant the squash and reap the bean
All the earth our mother gives
The natives return to the village with the food to greet the Chieftess and the warriors. Kekata and the children are at the smoke pit, Kekata makes a smoke rabbit and then he the children the Chieftess and her warriors.
Native Americans:
O great spirit, hear our song
Help us keep the ancient ways
Keep the sacred fire strong
Walk in balance all our days
The women who are working with the butter and clothing see the Chieftess and their husbands return and go to the river bank to reunite with them after the battle. The children then stop their game and go to the river bank to see their fathers.
Native Americans:
Seasons go and seasons come
Steady as the beating drum
Plum to seed to bud to plum
(Hega hega ya-hi-ye hega)
Steady as the beating drum
Blackfire stands up to get out of the boat and greets her people with compassion happy to be home. All the warriors are happy to be home with their families. Blackfire is happy to see all her people safe while she was gone.
Native Americans:
Hega hega ya-hi-ye-hega
Ya-hi-ye-ne-he hega
Blackfire sees her advisor kekata and goes over to greet hin
Kekata: Ka-ma wingapo Blackfire.
Blackfire: Ay-man-ay-cho, Kekata. It's good to be home.
Blackfire now wants to tell everyone that the battle is over.
Blackfire: Check-cham-ay! The Massawomecks are defeated! With the help of our brothers, our villages are safe again!
The natives are happy to hear this and cheer.
Kekata: Your return has brought much joy to the village. Look at all the smiling faces.
They both see one of the warriors reunite with his family.
Blackfire: Yes, but there is one smiling face I don't see. Where is my sister?
Blackfire really missed her younger sister and she really wants to see her again.
Kekata: You know Starfire. She has your mother's spirit. She goes wherever the wind takes her.
Kekata and Blackfire feel a gust of wind blow by and the wind blows towards the cliffs.
