When the ground begins to breathe and the river tastes of metal, a Nisg̱a'a village in the Nass Valley reads the signs: smoke that crawls, water that lies, a sky that hums. In the season before the historic eruption of Tseax Volcano, law is carried in small, exact acts-cloths hung where short arms can reach, doors left a finger open, a drum lifted for one slow beat.
As ash thickens and hot rock shoulders the river, a matriarch, a Raven Simgigat, a healer, a canoe-carver and his apprentice, a stern-wise trader's partner, and a girl who keeps the names must thread everyone across on a living bridge of canoes-one in, one away, one turning. Above and below, older powers take notice: a long-nosed sky-being pressing with patient weight, and the river's serpent-curve that loves to test ankles and pride.
Told in a slow burn of many voices, this supernatural thriller honors the discipline of ordinary days: wands that mark where water starts to lie, lamps kept lip-small, breath taught to walk the long path. Inspired by Nisg̱a'a adaawak and the real 17th-century eruption, it's a story about help sized right, games played fairly with the river, and a people who bring their law home unbroken.
