Vision Quest ![]() The smoke rises, pungent, cleansing body and mind. Naked, alone, I tread the highest peaks seeking a sign, listening for the Great Spirit's voice. I wait patiently, circling, at sunrise and sunset, holy ground sanctified by pine, sage, and generations of ritual that cry out in my blood. Brother Eagle provides illumination; Brother Wolf teaches adaptability. The wind quietly whispers the secrets of the four harmonies. My quest completed, my journey begins.
