Eywa will provide. It was something his mom used to say all the time, both as a reassurance and a prayer. As something to rely on during hard times, and as a cry of joy during good hunts. When the heat of the seasons were stifling below the trees, and there wasn’t much water to gain from the rivers, she’d tell him, “Eywa will provide, my little Spider.” And a few days would pass, the grey storm clouds would gather overhead, and the sky would split open. And he and his mom would drink for hours, gathering their gourds to place under large leaves, climbing to the tops of the trees to tip their heads to the water. When they trekked through the forest, chasing a creature who was too stubborn to succumb to its wounds and their grumbling stomachs, she’d say, “Eywa always provides.” She’d say it as they curled in the branch of a tree, their bellies tightening with hunger, and the next morning they’d find its body on the ground, having drawn its last breath during the night.
