About this listen

The Spiral of Greed

From the Native Myths of the American West series—a collection that reimagines traditional Klamath and Modoc stories in a contemporary voice.

When a traveler called HeWhoGathers crosses the great grass ocean, his charm and hunger draw in Buffalo, Mother Deer, C’waam, and the Black Wolf of Yamsay Mountain. Each learns the cost of trust and the price of greed.

Told in the rhythm of oral storytelling, The Spiral of Greed is both a warning and a lullaby—a story to listen to in quiet moments or before sleep.

A modern retelling of an old Native story about balance, consequence, and the truth that every game carries its teeth.

Written and performed by H. L. Delaney, a Modoc and Klamath author whose work bridges tradition and contemporary mythic realism.
