Drama

(Drama Fantasy) The following story is based on the ancient Egyptian myth of Horus. If you've never heard of it, then welcome, and I hope you enjoy a look at their mythology. If you have heard of it, then prepare for a quite different version of events.

(Drama Fantasy)While the characters, settings, and mythology in this story are loosely based upon those of the native Ojibwa (Chippewa) Indians, they are NOT intended to be representative of this tribe. The natives in my fiction were in fact natives of the Late Woodland period (precursors of the Ojibwa), before migrating to the Island and branching off into their own tribe. As such, there are obvious differences between the Manitou Island culture and real Ojibwa culture. Please view factual "errors" in society, culture, beliefs, etc. as exactly what they were intended to be: details of the author's own creation. This is a fantasy story, NOT historical fiction.

The year is 1983. The place is the Kobe-Osaka area. A 33-year-old American drifter and Vietnam War veteran has just arrived in Japan seeking one more adventure and an escape from his past.
