Weird dream

I can usually figure out where a dream came from. Sometimes it's from a conversation, sometimes from something on TV, but not this one. On this one I'm clueless.

There was an Indian boy in the woods. His village had been slaughtered. He was ten or so and had learned enough to survive on his own. There were other survivors, but they had scattered. Over the years he'd run into some others but for the most part he stayed on his own until he met another boy. The two of them became close friends and stuck together. This friend began to tell him of a legend of an Indian legend. I don't know if there were details of the legend in my dream, if there were I don't remember them, but the gist of it was there was an Indian who secretly helped others. This really struck a chord with our boy and he so badly wanted to believe the legend was truth and wanted to meet his new hero. As the years went on the legend grew. He would hear about him from more and more people and he became convinced it was real.

One day he was told his hero was just recently in a nearby village! He hurried there thinking he was hot on his trail. Maybe there would be some way to track him! When he arrived the villagers brought him the evidence of the legends recent visit. It was a gift of food that he himself had left. HE WAS THE LEGEND! How do you think he reacted? He was DEVASTATED!

Weird dream? I thought so.
