The Hero Twins
The Hero Twins, Born of Water and Monster Slayer, were born to rid the earth of the monsters who killed the People. Every Navajo knows the tale of the two. They were empowered by the sacred elements of the fourth
World: turquoise, obsidian, white shell, abalone, salt and wind; and they used these to the alien gods and save the world. But while some honour Monster Slayer for his great deeds, other remember that Born of Water tended the prayer sticks and kept a firm watch. Who does [NAV.GetLeader] honour most?Trigger conditions

The People's Riches
American corporations pressured the Navajo to open their land up for exploitation before the Great War. The Navajo reservation contained stockpiles of uranium, coal, natural gas, and oil. But the Navajo saw the writing on the wall and sought to develop their own commercial wind farm.

The Friend of Rome
Caesar initially sought to conquer the Navajo like he had Flagstaff, Phoenix, and Two Sun. Two years of bloody war convinced him this would not succeed. The Navajo Skinwalkers struck at camps under cover of night, causing chaos and slowing the Legion to a crawl. But the Legion ground forward, as relentless as the Arizona sun.
After two years of war, [NAV.GetLeader], leader of the Navajo Scouts, snuck into Caesar's tent, alone and unarmed. None know what he and Caesar spoke of that night, but when the sun rose, Caesar agreed to visit [NAV.Capital.GetName].
Some criticized [NAV.GetLeader] for his peace with the Legion, and his pledge to serve in the Legion's wars. But the Navajo Council saw the benefits the treaty would bring. The Legion promised to protect the People from raiders, and open the Legion's markets to them. And most importantly, Caesar promised the Navajo access to the Colorado's water supply. In exchange for tribute to Caesar, the Navajo's lands would become a garden.
