About this episode

The episode explores a fortune told to Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac, warning against ambition and the Nain Rouge.

"Your future and theirs lie in your own hands, beware of undue ambition; it will mar all your plans. Appease the Nain Rouge. Beware of offending him. Should you be thus unfortunate, not a vestige of your inheritance will be given to your heirs. Your name will be scarcely known in the city you founded." - From the fortune allegedly told to Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac. As chronicled in 'Legends of Detroit' by Marie Caroline Watson Hamlin.
