Chapter 3 - Creator spirit!

"What's going on mato" said Richard or his new name name Dasan "chief we are surrounded by animals we have never seen before" said mato in a hurried tone infact mato isn't even a Comanche name it's a Sioux name meaning bear this wasn't rare as you will typically take the children of a tribe you attacked and integrate them with yours but mato is a different case he was found by the tribe as it was moving all he knew was his name with Dasans knowledge he knew Sioux lived next to the Great Lakes making mato very far away from home Dasan quickly got up from his sleeping quarters as he put on his war bonnet and took his spear and bow as he made his way out his tipi followed by mato coming out his tipi Dasan looked around to see smaller tipis around with red skinned and tanned men outside holding bows and spears guarding around the tipis with a vigilant look he could see woman in the tipis and children with dogs at the side of the men growling as Dasan made it to the outer ring of tipis where he can finally see the situation outside the camp he saw 500 horses grazing all around the camp but what really startled him was the size of these horses the average seems to be 75 inches tall the entire herd of these behemoths all had different colors ranging from jet black to Snow White they had gigantic and curly manes and long curly hair on they're ankles almost covering they're hoofs Dasan knew about the shire horse the biggest horse in his last world but it was definitely smaller than this estimating by they're seize they should be over 2300 pounds on average they might be even more because they were so muscular they're entire neck almost looks like a tree trunk from the base

The hunters of the tribe saw they're chief come but they didn't make any noise they don't know what these gigantic creatures would do if they made noises although Dasan looked to be young compared to everyone he was 19 but his war bonnet can't fool anyone since he first went on a hunt he earned his feathers so everyone respected him Dasan just looked around for a few seconds then sighed as he thought of the how cruel the Comanche would become in the future he knows it's due to a mixture of having no central leadership that prompted to most of the cruel acts, torture and rape he was yet again determined to form a central leadership for the Comanche ofcourse fights with Mexican bandits and soldiers can't be ruled out but the level of cruelty the Comanche showed trumpet all of them we are talking about killing every male and baby, scalping live people, gang rape of every woman found and torture of them they would burn theyre captives alive and many more horrendous torture methods (this is not a kiss ass novel where I only talk about the good, that is what did happen in our world but it won't happen again due to richards intervention) Dasan was determined to change all native Indian fates but he did not want his people to be demonized by theyre actions after all the Comanche was a group of people who were brave and born warriors that fought for honor but he didn't view torture of defenseless people and senseless killing and rape as honorable

Looking around the hunters circled around the tipis to protect they're families and home he couldn't help but notice how tall they were well plain Indians were always tall but the Comanche were the shortest but in this world they were an average of 5'11 and some were even taller he himself being 6'0 with light brown skin he was muscular with brown eyes seeing the increased nervousness he knew that one of them wouldn't resist and fire and arrow eventually so he quickly called everyone including the woman and children to the front of his tipi although they were hesitant at first but seeing that the gigantic creatures were still minding their business they went aswell out of respect to the chief soon everyone was standing in front of his tipi which surprised him because the size of his tribe is insane in this time period there were atleast 300 people from young to old that was crazy as in pre Columbus America it was estimated that only 7-10 million natives 300 people in a tribe was insane in this time period he knew in this time of 1444 the Comanche were still in the north plains and have yet to migrated to the south plains, "I have spoken to the creator spirit and have been shown visions" as Dasan spoke those words the crowd instantly became quite after all The Comanche believed in a creator spirit and its counterpart, an evil spirit, and accepted the Sun, the Earth, and the Moon as deities they are very spiritual "chief could you describe the visions and what the creator spirit told you" said a fairly old man Dasan immediately recognized him as the medicine man Dasan lightly touched the old man's hand as a sign of greeting as he respectfully said "the great creator spirit gave us this gigantic creature we now see outside our camp the creatures we could use to ride and hunt bison and travel long distances the creator spirit said I was to be the chosen one and showed me visions of all tribe people suffering and dying he told me to save them all I will show I am the chosen one by taming the beasts the creator spirit called horses ofcourse any hunter can try to tame them after me" as the words finished the crowed instantly got noises as they started talking amongst each other about the creator spirits words and visions
