An eastbound train through Pennsylvania climbs to the mountains as gas fires blaze beside the track. A traveller learns from an oil worker of an ancient Delawares legend about survivors and a sacred sacrifice to avert fire on the waters. The tale centers on Naneetah, a Lenape heroine, and ends as a cliffhanger for the next week.
