This is phenomenal and I likely don't have anything productive to add that’s not already been said better and by an indigenous person.
The ONLY reason this is 0.25 away from a full 5 stars is because there was so much depth and breadth to the world that I wanted to dive into further and have more sort of god view exploration about. I really hope there can be more stories in this world.
