Once long ago there was an eclipse. This eclipse lasted for many days until the sun and moon both seemed to vanish out of sight. The only known light was the light of the fireflies. A great and powerful medicine wolf created two children, one pure white with sparkling yellow eyes, the other dark gray with pure white eyes.
The white pups name was Sun, he was a lovely wolf but he spoke little, the other pup was Moon, she was always finding mischief to get into. The two pups grew up and fell in love, not caring about appearance because they could barley see each other in the darkness.
They had a pup, his headwas pure white, but the rest of his fur was charcoal colored. He was given the name Eclipse by the medicine wolf. Eclipse had no intentions of harming anyone and like his father he spoke little, but he was mischievous like his mother. Their family became close but as Eclipse grew older his intentions became selfish. One day the medicine wolf contacted Sun and Moon. To their disbelief they were told to sacrifice Eclipse to the sky gods. It was hard for them because they were still very close.
After the sacrifice of Eclipse the sun and moon once again appeared in the sky, bringing light to the realm as before. Sun and Moon were heart broken and after some time they died off. Now once every month the ghost of Eclipse will come back to the realm and watch over the land, claiming it as his. Eclipse is a feared wolf and many stay clear of him. As for the medicine wolf, it is told that he still lives in his hut, but his immortality drove him crazy and it is not wise to reckon with him.
Some wolves wish to pray to the sky god near the sacrifice area, but sacrifices were forbidden a long, long time ago.
