The fire bird

Summary

Flora, born Wabikoni, is one of the Indian Residential Schools’ many victims. She’s about to have a meltdown because she can't find an object that is very dear to her. Instead, Flora finds a strange spinning top. A very odd crossover, I know.

The fire bird

Flora, born Wabikoni, is one of the Indian Residential Schools’ many victims. Because of the traumas she has experienced, Flora has often had "meltdowns." Panic attacks, aggressive behavior, crying for hours, etc. Today, Flora cannot find her little flower. It is a flower carved in wood, a gift from her mother. An object that she managed to hide at the Indian Residential School. Her flower was her lifeline. A symbol of hope. Flora has always kept it, although she often hides it, as if she was ashamed to see it. As Flora doesn't find her little flower, she'll have a meltdown. She knows it. Suddenly, she finds something else. A strange spinning top. Blue in color, it seems to be made of metal, which is very curious. When Flora takes it, the spinning top lights up and a large fire bird appears. The shock is so great for Flora, she thinks to be in the presence of a powerful spirit, that she faints. When she wakes up, the spinning top and the bird are gone. In her hand is her little wooden flower.
