Great Chief's Realm (2)

The people of this tribe found it hard to believe whenever the 'Great Chief' sent gifts. In a situation where everyone was starving, unable to find food, they continuously produced numerous fruits, as if molding them from clay.

After the envoy they sent left, everyone from the chief to tribe members hurriedly ate potatoes and grapes.

The beginning of everything was when they carelessly accepted the massive gift for the first time.

The pain of famine continuing for years, hunger, disease—these things changed them again.

Many tribe members now don't bother with farming that's about to fail anyway and just roam around to obtain precious fur pelts. It's easier to exchange them with the Great Chief for food.

The days of making gift ornaments in spare time after farming and hunting are gone. Now they only sow seeds and hunt meat if they have time after making ornaments.

It wasn't just them.

Some spend the entire day mining pearls.
