Here’s a bit of trivia about the Uktena that will help the story make a bit more sense.
The Uktena is a Native American mythological creature that I believe originated with the Eastern Cherokee Indians. It’s a gigantic snake with horns (though I can’t find anything that says what kind of horns it has so I just faked it), a giant diamond shaped crystal on its head, rings of colors, and bright lights. Seeing one means certain death because those who see the Uktena are so dazzled by it that they run towards it instead of away. Even seeing it while it sleeps means death to the family of the one who saw it. But if you can get the crystal on it’s forehead, you can see the future. The Uktena is often depicted with wings because it was created to kill the sun. It lives in deep pools in rivers and mountain passes.
I’m in desperate need for someone to edit this for me. I’m dyslexic so there’s bound to be a huge amount of typos, misspellings and homonym mix ups that spell check and me going over it haven’t found. And I have pretty bad grammar. I apologize for that.
