    Description
     
    Lakota orphan Waskn Mani "Moves Walking", child of a star and a human mother, is a gentle, nature-conscious boy gifted with rare spiritual insight and power.  His people are astonished when Moves Walking opposes Fire Thunder, a warrior of great skill and violence whose quest for power will lead to the tribe's spiritual destruction.  Only through sacrifice can Moves Walking restore life and hope to his people and heal their "elemental sorrow – the anguish of living things when the sacred hoop is broken."
