A great old bear. A wolf with a tightening pack. A deer whose grace has gone unkind. A snake. A clever raccoon. Two eagles. A hawk. An owl. A small squirrel named Saloli. A bat the others will not yet name. And a boy called Tsigilli, the one who watches, who does not know yet that he has been called too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThey gather at a clearing where the trees do not grow, to play a game older than any of them - the game the Cherokee call anetsa, the little brother of war, the game that was first played, the elders say, not between human beings but between the four-legged and the winged.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Medicine Game is the ancient Cherokee mythology of lacrosse, set down in the long line of Tsalagi storytellers who carried it before there was paper to carry it on.
