Trembling Aspen Story of the Past

 There is a story about Napi and the Quaking Aspen. When Napi walked through the forest, all the trees and plants would bow down in respect. One day, the aspens got together and started to complain about having to bow down for Napi. The aspens decided that the next time he came through the forest that they would stay standing tall and ignore him. Soon after they agreed, Napi came walking through the forest. This time, the aspens did not bow when all the other plants and trees did. Napi got really mad at the aspens. He got so mad that he called on the lightening. The lightening bolts came and went straight for the aspens. The aspens got so scared that their leaves started to tremble. Ever since that time, if the aspens hear someone coming through a clearing, their leaves start to tremble and shake in fear that it might be Napi with lightening bolts.
