He is not ready.
One season each year...
...we hunt the Great Beast.
We do this, or our tribe dies.
He must do his part.
Prove himself to the tribe.
What if he can't...
I love him
with my whole heart.
He could die.
I am afraid.
He leads with his heart.
Not his spear.

My friend.
(HUNTERS SPEAKING

You have survived the winter.
A little fatter maybe?
Yes.
And I bring a young hunter...
Raise your head...
and your eyes will follow.
This is my son.
Mine will not see
another hunt.
He has gone
to the ancestors.
You must be a proud father.
I hope he makes me proud.

(TAU SPEAKING IN SOLUTREAN)
Our tribe has walked
the Sacred Path
Path since
the first Great Hunt.
Marks guide our way.
Made by our ancestors.
Left as a trail
for us to follow.
And to help us survive
the great journey.
Our hands point us
to the hunting ground.
Some will return.
Some will not.
Those marks remain... for the
leader to bring the hunters home.

The light
from our ancestors...
...showing us the way home.
(EXHALES)
Home.
(WOLF HOWLING)
You see that one?
That is the Alpha,
their leader.
The Alpha must care for his pack.
Above all else.
But he is also
always in danger.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER
AND LAUGHTER)
Others in the pack
will challenge him...
(WOLVES CONTINUE HOWLING)
...if they sense weakness.
The Alpha lets the others
know his place...
...with his strength and calm.
He was not born the Alpha.
But he earned it with his courage...
and his heart.
