Sedna was a beautiful young woman, but her vanity and disregard for others made her unpleasant.
Sedna's father, tired of her capriciousness, declared she would marry the next suitor.
A wealthy but ugly hunter proposed, and despite Sedna's tears, her father forced the marriage.
Sedna discovered her husband was a powerful, cruel shaman who often transformed into a bird-man.
Sedna's father heard her cries and rescued her, but they couldn't linger.
The shaman discovered their escape and summoned a terrible storm to pursue them.
To appease the shaman, Sedna's father threw her overboard, then broke her fingers when she clung on.
Her broken fingers became fish, and her hands became sea mammals as she sank to become the sea goddess.
