The pond spirit is an innocent, since he boldly helps Long Arrow in his journey without inquiring about his reason to be looking for the old spirits and guides him in his journey.
The lake spirit is a rebel, because his behavior towards Long Arrow shows that he doesn't care about his opinion on him, even knowing that he might look terrifying to a tiny human being who was exhausted from walking aroud for days. He admires the same aspect in Long Arrow's personality.
The old spirit chief is a caregiver, because he lets the orphan inside his tipi, feeds him an teaches him everything there is about the Elk Dogs and how to raise them and bring them into his tribe. He teaches all his knowledge and experience.
