One story tells of an old man who falls victim to an ancient Indian curse.

You lived in interesting times, as the ancient curse had it.

Running from the ancient curse that tainted his very soul.

That his people held in their own hands the power to free themselves of their ancient curse at last.

I wondered if he'd tell me about the ancient curses.

The ancient curse will be carried out in her name.

Call down some ancient curse with ears of corn soaked in blood.

This is suggested in the work to be the possible consequence of an ancient curse.

And from that day, the ancient curse has been waking.

My hand it is which must lift the ancient curse from this dark land.
