31-year-old Flying Stag is chosen to compete to become the Royaneh, the Supreme Chief of the Iroquois Nation. He is caught in a trap laid by warriors intent to lead the Iroquois on the warpath. Intent on saving the Nations, he beseaches the Manitou Spirit, offering to relinquish all personal honor. He is empowered by the Manitou Stone, constructing a buffalo mask to disguise himself, competing under the name Saganowahna, which roughly translates to 'Super-Chief". He wins the role of Royaneh and devotes himself to protecting the people of the Nations, but loses all favor with the Wolf Clan as Flying Stag because he didn't compete, including the hand of White Fawn.
