As I rest beneath my rider in the crisp morning air, I feel both excited and uneasy. I am a sturdy horse, strong and loyal, the companion of my American Indian master. We have traveled through the lush forests and wide fields of our land. My muscles ripple under the sunlight, and I can feel my heart racing as I watch the waves crash against the shore. There, emerging from the mist, are tall ships carrying these new people—the Europeans. My bridle, which rests snugly around my snout, serves as a guide ensuring my master remains calm as we observe this dire scene unfold before us. The world feels heavy, the air thick with tension, and I can tell my rider senses something is off. He talks softly to his friend, his voice low and anxious, and I share in that worry.

While I want to show my strength and bravery, there is a whisper of fear tingling in my legs. I feel the pull of my bridle in my rider's hands, a gentle reminder of our bond. My purpose goes beyond carrying him; I am a part of the spirit of this land, and now we are witnessing a change that may be elite, understanding nothing of the new ideas and intentions these newcomers bring. My rider's grip tightens, and I can sense his heart pounding rapidly beneath his chest, echoing my own. I wish to reassure him, to paw the ground and break this silence, but I remain mute, absorbing his emotions and the weight of the history that may soon change us all forever. This moment feels critical, as though we stand on the edge of something unimaginable—a world where we protect our way of life under the shadow of those who have just arrived.
