The Legend Of Black Rune Stone

Once upon a time, a monster lived on the earth named Duran. Duran was horrible monster. He loved to catch the People and eat them. This did not make him very popular with the People. Whenever the monster approached, all the People ran away.

One night, Duran stomped up to the wick up of Child of Water(Joan) and she's mother(Baldea). Before her mother could stop him, Child of Water(Joan) challenged Duran to a contest.

"Here are the rules," said Child of Water. She carefully explained that she would be on one side and Duran would be on the other. Both sides would have a chance to shoot four arrows at each other, at the same time. Whichever killed the other first would get all the food. "Do you accept these rules and promise to obey them?" chanted Joan, in the way of the people. Child of Water was only a very small girl. But she knew the chant was binding. It was a promise that must be kept.

"I'll play your silly game," laughed Duran. "First I'll shoot you full of arrows. Then I'll eat you, your mother(Baldea), and all your food!" Just thinking about this satisfying treat had the monster smacking his lips hungrily.

As both fighters took their positions, Child of Water(Joan) leaned down and picked up a Black rune stone. The stone was a gift from the gods, a thing of protection. But Child of Water did not know that. While he was looking at her stone, the monster quickly shot four arrows at Joan. This was against the rules, but the monster did not care. Much to his surprise, all the monster's arrows missed Joan. Quickly, before the monster could do anything else against the rules, Joan shot an arrow at Duran. The arrow pierced the monster's head and killed him dead.

By then, everyone had gathered around. It was obvious that the Devil Dancers were among them. What a noise they made that night rejoicing!

The next day, Child of Water's mother(Baldea) bore a hole in that Black run stone. She strung it into a necklace. Ever after, Child of Water(Joan) wore the blue rock around his neck for love and luck (It's necklace name is Joan's Necklace). Over time, Child of Water found many Black rune stone. She made a wonderful necklace for his mother, to keep her safe as well.

As time went on, and as Child of Water grew taller, each monster came to challenge her. Each time, wearing her Joan's Necklace, each monster's arrows missed Child of Water. But Child of Water's arrows killed each monster, every time, until all the monsters were gone.

As all Apache children know, it is a wise thing to hunt for Black rune stone. If you find one, you too might find yourself some luck.
