The father-in-law said: “That is why I sent it. Now we have stopped. The Khanty will live in the time sent by God, in the time of life for the Khanty, given by God. There will be no such war. We have killed many, have done it.” War-Arrow Spirit, Death-Arrow Spirit said: “We will now scatter to the sides, we three men will live in three corners of the earth. May the Khantys, as long as time is given to the Khanty, as long as life is given to the Khanty, think of us, may they remember us. If someone remembers us, let him put out funeral cups for us. If someone remembers let him remember us with a funeral sacrifice. Father-in-law, you will live thus, your lot will be thus. You will go to the east, to the sea. You have many related fish. You have many related fish, you will be the master. Seven sheds with gold and silver money, when the thought occurs to you, lake fish, fish swimming against the stream, if someone pleases you, give to him, send to him. Give much to the man, to whom much must be given. Give little to the man, to whom little must be given, you are the master.”

Old man wolf was going there. The wolf put his tongue out. “These young animals,” he said and thought, “if only I had wings like they do. Squirrels move a lot and go far on the ground, they jump and leap through the whole forest.” The wolf said: “Why don’t I jump just as easily?” Then the crow came and said: “How will you jump? Because the squirrels have a downy tail, they can fly. But poor you have no fluffy tail and you can’t fly.” The crow brought the wolf to tears. The wolf wept: “Really,” he said, “in the course of my life I have earned little for myself. The squirrels eat the berries found in the forest, they eat the cones found in the forest. And poor me, I will stop like this.” That’s how he lived.

Suddenly his brother came again and said: “Yesterday there was less money, now there’s more. The gold money glitters here in the house.” “Well,” he said, “I took the body of the dead woman, my aunt, to the city. The city people search for the flesh of dead people. They go up and down the streets crying out.” What to do. Again the brother started thinking, he went home and thought: “I’ll take my wife and cut her throat. I’ll bring her to the city and sell her. So much money!” Night came, the brother sharpened his axe. His wife had fallen asleep. While she was sleeping, he chopped her in two with the axe. He loaded the woman and took her to the city on a horse. He transported her to the city and went up and down the city streets crying out: “Who needs a fresh corpse, who need a fresh corpse?” “Are you out of your mind?” said the people. “Has this man gone out of his mind? Who needs a corpse? Nobody needs a corpse.”

He went to the tsar. He said “What are you saying to me? Will you give me some work? While my father and mother lived, they had little work. Perhaps I came here to do my work.” The tsar said: “Why not take it? You are a young man. Where I send you, you will go.” “Send me where you want,” he said, “I have already gone round our water and our land. I know everything which is in the forest.” The tsar said: “We need a man like this. While your father lived, he lived, but ha no idea what was in the forest. You seem to know “everything.” The young man said: “Then tell me what work you will give me.” He said: “I’ll give you work. My whole life I have been here and lived here and while living here I had four women and five men, but my fences are all broken. They are all broken.” “Right,” he said, “I’ll fix your fences. Tomorrow I will bring you the herd, and you give me lodging.”

So, fine. He took the sleds, the town hero’s son and saw that a dry she-deer was tied up behind the team and her hide stuck to her horns. A similar she-deer was tied to the woman’s team. Oh, the team started off, and behind the dry she-deer the herd stretched out. They went for a long or a short time, he thought, they had gone on a bit further, he gazed on the edge of that clearing and thought: “Why was I forbidden to look back, why? Why does it bother her? I’ll stop and take a look.” He jumped down from the sled, turned around, looked back: a small herd stretched out behind the she-deer, even though they were going well. While he looked back, from the place where the house stood a small herd extended to them. “Well,” said the people remaining there, “if you didn’t want to be full, you didn’t want to have weight, that’s your business, that’s your luck. This much has been cut off for you, lots or little, as much as you have, go with that.” So, what can be done? “What’s done is done,” thought the town hero’s son. “I’ve done my part.”
