Background[ | ]

The Diné tribe were allowed to return to their homeland, which Dehaaya refers to as Diné Bikéyah, after some years of their stay at Hweeldi.
Dehaaya currently has one daughter.

True Form[ | ]

This ties back to Dehaaya's heritage as the moutains are white, blue, yellow and black; these colors are represent the four sacred mountains which border Diné land: Mt. Blanca (Tsisnaasjini'), Mt. Taylor (Tsoodzil), the San Francisco Peaks (Doko'oosliid), and Mt. Hesperus (Dibé Nitsaa)[1][2].
