Matt played a key role in killing the bear that was the reason for the feast. As Matt and Attean walked through the wilderness, Matt carried a rabbit he had killed. When the bear charged them, Matt slung the rabbit toward the bear to distract him while Attean killed the bear. For this reason, Attean and Saknis invited Matt to the feast.
At the feast, Matt felt alone at first, but eventually Saknis introduced him to the tribe. They welcomed him. After everyone was seated outside in a circle, Attean told the story of the bear. Attean told the story in detail, explaining how Matt helped save them from the bear when he threw his rabbit at the bear to distract her, moving quickly like an Indian. The story was exciting and, in telling it, Attean made sure the tribe knew that Matt played a large part in the victory over the bear.
