AmerIndian 2192

Broge, Elder Celetain Prax's assistant, exposes himself as a UDA spy as he attempts to escape in an AmerIndian Confederacy outrider ship.

Jaret effects Alexa Sullivan's escape from Admiral Lige's ship, Black Mariah.

Wovoka works side by side with Apache and Brule construction workers creating a new Chunnel through the Naanac freemantle. Elder John approaches Keokuk with an offer to serve as his assistant. Elder John explains the distribution of land among the tribes and how the old Native American ways will be followed on the new Homeland. Wovoka leads AmerIndian Confederacy forces through the new Chunnel and down onto the surface of Naanac. Rowan megacorp surrenders the planet in exchange for removing its equipment and keeping its research private. Keokuk hijacks almost all of the UDAs television server gates and announces to all eight UDA colonies and eight hundred UDA outposts that the AmerIndian Confederacy has taken Naanac, intends to hold it and will retaliate with Cybershamanism if the UDA attempts to use forces to retake the planet. Admiral Lige debates with the other UDA admirals about their immediate plan to use force to retake Naanac and ignores orders to take his fleet to Naanac. Wovoka takes a moment to watch as tribals begin to settle on the new Homeland.

Derek, a young UDA colony citizen, meets with his roleplaying game group. The efforts of this roleplaying game group, dedicated to aiding the AmerIndian Confederacy and teaching its members to read, stand in sharp contrast to the bleak existence of Derek's family as they are affected by abusive UDA and mega-corp policies. Admiral Lige reports his failure at the Steel Circle to Grand Admiral Ramus and deftly avoids a due reprimand. Brule Chief Satyr refuses to follow Wovoka as the White Buffalo. Wovoka defeats three Brule champions to win Satyr's chiefdom.

Admiral Lige's bodyguard, Jaret, shows a growing interest in the prisoner Alexa Sullivan, the UDA President's daughter. The AmerIndian Confederacy Elders debate recognizing Wovoka as the White Buffalo and invading Naanac to acquire as the people's Homeland, instead of White Earth. Admiral Lige meets with advisors to address the mutiny that occurred in his last engagement with the AmerIndian Confederacy. Wolf Plume consoles Wovoka as the weight of Slow Turtle's death sets in. The AmerIndian Confederacy Elders decide to heed Celetain Prax's words, acknowledge Wovoka as the White Buffalo and invade Naanac immediately.

Declared as the White Buffalo to all of the tribes, Wovoka shares his vision received on Naanac. Celetain interprets his vision and proclaims Naanac as the new Homeland of the AmerIndian Confederacy, negating the hopes of many tribals to someday return to earth. Admiral Gavon Lige interrupts the Steel Circle and presses the AmerIndian Confederacy convoy into a running space battle. Keokuk instructs Wovoka on what orders to give and hands Lige a sound defeat.

UDA Admiral Gavon Lige meets with UDA President Sullivan and reminds the politician that he is a puppet that will dance as the strings are pulled. Celetain Prax explains to Wovoka that he is the prophesied White Buffalo and that the homeland the AmerIndian's have searched for seven-hundred years for is indeed the asteroid-shrouded swamp planet, Naanac. Celetain's assistant Silver takes Wovoka and Keokuk to the reverently preserved body tank of the deceased AmerIndian Confederacy's founder, Potlatch Weaver.

Slow Turtle (Jade Dagger pack's gunner) engages Rowan megacorp pilots in an atmosphere dog-fight. A Rowan veteran pilots his atmosphere fighter through Slow Turtle's deadly line of fire and sheers the gun turret off of the Trighter, killing himself and injuring Slow Turtle. Cavaho, Wolf Plume, Slow Turtle and Wovoka gear up their body tanks and space-walk through Naanac's Free Mantle. One of Jade Dagger's members dies during the harrowing journey and the rest await rescue with the corpse as the air in their body tanks dwindles.

Celetain Prax, Elder Shaman of the AmerIndian Confederacy and Cybershamanisim creator, has a prophetic dream. A nightmarish figure speaks of the White Buffalo who will buy back at a terrible price the Homeland lost to the AmerIndians in 1492. Celetain also sees the danger Jade Dagger faces and organizes their rescue, bringing Keokuk to help his estranged brother. Focus is shifted back thirteen years to 2179. David Stone Rain is mortally wounded in the White Earth Massacre. He calls his sons, Keokuk and Wovoka, to his side to speak to them as Morningstar Prax tries to heal him using traditional shamanism. Stone Rain intimidates the young Keokuk into promising to stay with the Apache tribe and abandon his interest in Tsimshian technology. This promise, made to be broken, forms a wedge between Keokuk and Wovoka. Celetain witnesses the failure of her mother's form of shamanism as Stone Rain dies.

In 1972, Bear Vajo, an AmerIndian militant, is denied by the Grandfathers. The tribes he is leading to revolution are told to wait until the White Buffalo walks among the People in his four-legged and two-legged form. In 2192, Keokuk, a Tsimshian tri-jack, aids the Diegueno tribe by nixing a destructive computer virus preying on their lodge ship's animal habitats. Keokuk meets with his brother's Apache Infiltrator pack, Jade Dagger, to give them insider-information on available pack missions. A deep hostility between the two brothers, born from religious differences and a broken promise to a deceased father, becomes evident.
