Lenni Lenape Village

After being taken by the Lenni Lenape (Delaware) Indians at the age of four, True Son lives among them in their village until he is fifteen and forced to return to his white family. The village remains in his mind throughout his time in Pennsylvania, and he is haunted by visions of its familiar sights, sounds and smells.

Forks of Muskingum

The white army meets the Indians at the Forks of Muskingum, a sacred place in the wilderness. One path leads to the Lenni Lenape village, and another is the route the army takes to Pennsylvania.

Fort Pitt

The army and the captives stop at Fort Pitt on the way to Pennsylvania; the soldiers are happy to be back in a white military stronghold, but to captives like True Son it is a frightening place full of drunken soldiers, claustrophobic walls and Indian traitors.
