While Iron Shell was in the house, he told them a story about his father when they were pushed to live in the reservation areas by the white people. His father followed a quest in order to search for his vision, instead of dwelling on hatred for the whites. He was able to find a broken shell that came from an iron kettle. He placed this in his medicine bag. After they were taken from his home, he realized that the iron brought him to the reservation and that was his vision. It showed him that the Native Americans were to live in the reservation area. He believed that the iron was a form of good luck.
