Songs of the Tufa
No one knows where the Tufa came from, or how they ended up in the mountains of East Tennessee before the first Europeans arrived. Yet there they were and there they remain, dark-haired and enigmatic, allegedly unware of their own origins. But there are clues in their music, and those with the truest Tufa blood know the songs that allow them to fly on the night wind....
