Once upon a time, there was a magical longhouse in a remote strait that was home to a powerful shaman. The shaman had the ability to control supernatural powers and was known for his extraordinary pigment that glowed with different colors.

One day, a greedy king decided to confiscate the shaman's powers by stealing his pigment. The king believed that with the pigment, he would rule over the entire kingdom triumphantly.

However, the shaman was not one to give up easily. He summoned his magical powers and went on an ascent to retrieve his stolen pigment. Along the way, he encountered many challenges but with his wit and charm, he managed to overcome them all.

Finally, he reached the castle where the king was hiding, and after a fierce battle, the shaman emerged victorious. He retrieved his pigment and returned to the longhouse, where he was greeted with celebration from the communal.

The king was never seen or heard from again, and the shaman continued to use his powers for good, ensuring that no other species faced extinction. And so, the story ends with the shaman living happily ever after, glowing triumphantly with his supernatural pigment.
