My submission, They Dance as One in Shadowlight, encapsulates a fictional world based on my experiences working among the Yupik peoples of Alaska. Entirely fabricated, inspired by the environment, the people, and culture, this submission represents a much larger work. In no way does this reflect the true nature of the Yupik people's being, which is beyond the experience, comprehension, and sensitivities of our western culture. I will honor them forever for their efforts in teaching me how to become something more than what I was before I met them.
