1. Describe Fleur's cabin.

Fleur's cabin is located near Matchimanito Lake which is said to be inhabited by a lake monster. There are woods all around that the townspeople say are filled with ghosts. Fleur's cabin is the Pillager family cabin and the place where her family died of sickness. Fleur was found near death in the cabin by Nanapush and Edgar Pukwan. Fleur refuses to give up her family's home and returns there as soon as Nanapush has nursed her back to health. Fleur returns again to the PIllager cabin after Lulu is sent away and Nanapush moves in with Margaret.

2. Discuss why Fleur and Nanapush do not utter the names of the dead.

Fleur and Nanapush do not say the names of her dead family for fear that they will hear. The names are kept silent so that the dead can continue on their journey to the other side and not choose to return to the land of the living. By not speaking their names out loud Fleur and Nanapush show respect for their family. This is in contrast to Father Damien and other white agents who constantly ask for Nanapush's name and force Nanapush to name Fleur's daughter.
