Peace From Blood: Minnesota's Pipestone Quarries
The earth was red with the blood of the dead. Rocks were stained crimson, and shouts of hate echoed on the wind. The nations of the earth were at war, and the law of the Great Spirit was forgotten. The Great Spirit was saddened by the never-ending battles and the cries of pain and agony from his red children. He wished all Indians to live in peace, for the land was large and there was room for all. The Great Spirit called all nations together, and they met on the battleground stained with warriors' blood. He broke a piece from a red rock and made it into a pipe. In the bowl he placed the bark of red trees and then lit it with eternal fire. The smoke wandered up to the sky, and the spirit of mankind embraced the Great Mystery.
