    IIRC the Wolves vaguely allude to Native America, in which case Natani is a literal example of two-spirit in action.

    Forgot about that. Good observation.

    Side tangent: It seems the term "two-spirit" was invented in 1990 to replace a more offensive word, but it's a broad term that basically encompasses any LGBTQ tradition or terminology across any tribes across North America. As far as I can tell it doesn't have any cultural significance to any specific tribes.
