Chapter 13 Summary

Samson wakes at Forest’s urging. Forest finally tells him the full truth: that he used to be the wildfolks’ Father, and the earth was their Mother, until the Indigenous people came and with them Mamunappeht. Though they initially lived in peace, Mamunappeht showed the Pequot the magic in the wildfolk, and the Pequot began to go after them. To protect themselves, the wildfolk used the fruit of Pawpaw to give Samson the strength to fight Mamunappeht; this backfired, though, when the wildfolk unintentionally imbued the spell with their own hatred, turning Samson into a murderous entity. Mamunappeht ended the rampage by putting Samson to sleep with his visions of spiders, and then cutting off Samson’s head and mounting it on his wall—one of the many trophies he would eventually collect after killing the rest of the wildfolk. Mother Earth stopped Mamunapphet from getting control of the Pawpaw tree by sending lightning and destroying it herself. When the Pawpaw finally produced another fruit, the remaining wildfolk were able to use it to revive the remains of Samson’s body that weren’t in Mamunappeht’s cave. Now that Samson is back in the cave, he has the opportunity to reunite with the parts of himself that Mamunappeht took and finally become whole again.
