The giant Tsul'kălû', meaning 'he has them slanting,' resides on Tanasee Bald Mountain and is the Great Lord of the Game, invisible but influential.
The story humorously places Tsul'kălû' in a small asi, a traditional Cherokee winter house, emphasizing the contrast of a giant in a confined space.
Cherokee lore, including Tsul'kălû', highlights the need for trust and adherence to instructions, reflecting a broader cultural lesson in responsibility.
Tsul'kălû' became invisible after the people broke trust with him, symbolizing a consequence of their actions and marking their relationship with the spirit.
