In a time when darkness covered the land, a boy named Weget is born
who is destined to bring the light. With the gift of a raven's skin
that allows him to fly as well as transform, Weget turns into a
bird and journeys from Haida Gwaii into the sky. There he finds the
Chief of the Heavens who keeps the light in a box. By transforming
himself into a pine needle, clever Weget tricks the Chief and
escapes with the daylight back down to Earth.
Vividly portrayed through the art of Roy Henry Vickers, Weget's
story has been passed down for generations. The tale has been
traced back at least 3,000 years by archeologists who have found
images of Weget's journey in petroglyphs on the Nass and Skeena
rivers. This version of the story originates from one told to the
author by Chester Bolton, Chief of the Ravens, from the village of
Kitkatla around 1975.
