This week Kelsey tells the story that inspired one of her favorite video games, Kunuuksaayuka, an Iñupiat story by Robert Nasruk Cleveland and collected in the Stories of the Black River People. Abbie follows it up with a cautionary tale about butterflies, Tolowim Woman, and Butterfly Man, from the Maidu Indigenous peoples.
