Status Updates From Tecumseh and the Prophet: T...

1809-1811 Tecumseh becomes more of a diplomat, scheming governor Harrison (who in future is president Harrison) plotting a greater land grab. Tecumseh and Tenskwatawa meet with the British and formerly ambivalent other tribes to ensure British will back them if it becomes a real war. Brits are hesitant but another war is on the horizon with the US

The British are always scheming and plotting lol. New settlement of Prophetstown founded after visiting Potawatomi shaman Main Poc (who is also scheming) gives the brothers the go ahead to build there after famine and suspicion descends on their old settlement

Lalawethika, a drunkard and proven coward, unable to stop his people rapidly dying from influenza, collapses by the fire, and is pronounced dead. He awakens a day later, telling of his journey into the afterlife/ the hell of Motshee Manitou. Tecumseh becomes an early and earnest believer. Lalawethika becomes Tenskwatawa, the prophet. Tenskwatawa's syncretic religion leads to witch hunts in nearby Delaware villages
