Description
Chinook Native American Creation Story.
South wind was traveling north, hungry. He met an old woman, a giantess and asked her for food. She didn't have any, but offered a fishing net. South wind caught a whale. The giantess said to cut it down the back, but South wind ignored her and cut sideways. A great Thunderbird emerged. It flew away to the highest mountain to lay eggs. The giantess followed until she found the eggs unguarded. She cracked an egg, but it was bad, so she tossed it. When it landed, the first human emerged. All the eggs were the same, all were tossed, all became Chinook.
The Thunderbird was angry. Thunderbird and South wind still travel north every year searching for the giantess to exact revenge, but they haven't found her yet.
