*This storyboard set featuring Napi learning the virtue of humility serves as a reminder of the importance of modesty, respect, and harmony with nature in Blackfeet traditions. Through Napi’s experience, the legend teaches the value of humility and the repercussions of arrogance, emphasizing the need for balance and respect in the relationship between humans and the natural world.
The representation of insects adorned in painted robes could symbolize various teachings or moral lessons related to humility, interconnectedness, or the significance of every creature in the natural world. These tales often emphasize the importance of modesty, cooperation, and understanding one’s place in the intricate web of life.
