whakarāpopototanga
He pūrākau whakahihiri hou mō tētahi pirihimana i tētahi whenua rāhui o ngā Iwi Taketake o Amerika e tīmata ana i tētahi misioni morearea ki te rapu i te pūtake o te rerenga mai o te heroin..
Ko Virgil Wounded Horse te pirihimana ā-rohe i te Rosebud Indian Rahui i South Dakota.
Ina whakakahoretia te tika e te pūnaha ture o Amerika, e te kaunihera iwi rānei, ka utua a Virgil ki te tuku i tana ake whiu, te momo whiu e uaua ana ki te wareware.
Engari i te taenga mai o te heroin ki te whenua rāhui, ā, ka kitea te iramutu a Virgil, ka huri tōna tūpato ki te tangata. Ka tono ia i te āwhina a tana hoa wahine o mua, ā, ka anga atu ki te ako i te pūtake mai o ngā tarukino, me pēhea hoki te whakamutu.
Ka whai rātou i tētahi ara ki Denver, ā, ka kitea kei te tere haere te horapa o ngā rōpū tarukino, ā, kei te hanga hononga hou, whakamataku hoki. Ā, i te whenua rāhui, ka ara ake he pātai whakamā mō te moni me te mana i roto i tētahi kaupapa hou a te kaunihera iwi.
I a Virgil e tīmata ana ki te hono i ngā wāhanga, me tū atu ia ki ōna ake rewera, me te whakahoki mai i tōna tuakiri Māori. E mōhio ana ia he utu nui te noho hei Māori o Amerika i te rautau rua tekau mā tahi.
Ngā Tatau o te Takurua He pukapuka pakiwaitara taihara tino rongonui, he tirohanga pono ki tētahi wāhanga o te oranga o Amerika kua roa e warewarehia ana, ā, he kōrero hurihuri, he kōrero hōhonu, he kōrero whakahihiri hoki.Mai i te kaiwhakaputa.)
