I asked Falling Star why she showed me all of this. She said her People wanted their story told and asked me if I would tell it. Of course, I said, and then I asked her why. She said her People were so deeply spiritual, so in tune and in touch with the Creator that they actively lived the principles of Oneness.

What would cause an ancient civilization to leave its homeland? Learn what causes this peaceful, caring ancient civilization to abandon their ancestral lands in this Book 2- Ancient Civilization: The Journey of Surrender the second part of the trilogy from the adaption of The Camp of Gods Tears. The Journey of The People begins just as Red Fox returns home from his assignment touring a major portion of the culture. This civilization is thousands of years old with the last thousand years having thrived in peace. When the story takes place, peace is all they knew. As a result The People enjoyed a peaceful, rich and elegant way of life, never experiencing violence or want, at least until now. Suddenly this peaceful and caring civilization becomes alerted to the possibility that their civilization is at risk. Their dreamers and seers share their concerns. Doom poised to attack by unknown and unimaginable threats took years for The People to come to grips with it. They found it difficult to think in terms that their beautiful lives and civilization could possibly end. If so, what to do about it? To stay or to go? To stay and fight? Or to go and abandon their ancestral lands, cultivated, cultured, and thrived upon for longer than memory could afford? Each choice appears unacceptable. Red Fox had built a model of the Great Serpent to show as he made presentation after presentation invoking memories of the history of The People. His message was "remember to remember." The idea was to bring to consciousness as to whom The People are, and why they live the way they live, in the effort to bring thoughts and actions into focus and back in alignment with Great Spirit and the Oneness principle they lived by.

In The Camp of God's Tears the authors circumscribe an untold journey of ancient Native American culture with teachings of wisdom, love, and respect for nature.

The story came to me in a dream. It was told to me by Falling Star. She answered a myriad of questions I asked. She showed me the locations of where the events in the story took place. She showed me her People who wore exotic clothes made of finely woven textiles decorated with pearls, copper and other artistic ornaments. She showed me strongly built homes, their villages, and their expansive farms. I saw their social organization was powerful yet simple, a few shaman, elders, and no real leaders.
