Suddenly the elder daughter said: “Why do we live on the Lokhas river? If we were to go to the Supteng river? That’s where our kinfolk live.” Then the mother said: “I don’t want to go outside. I’m here and staying.” She talked to the elder brother. The elder daughter of the squirrel said: “How shall we live in one place? I think that our nuts will soon be gone and what will we eat then?” The small children take a stand and say:” “If sister goes, we won’t stay, we’ll move to the Supteng river.” They wanted to go. All of them wanted to go.

Nobody saw how many days he slept. When he woke up, the people asked him, he woke up and the people asked him: “How many years did you lie, do you know?” He said: “How do I know how many years I lay?” The middle brother said: “You turned out to be our brother-in-law and our sister’s ring came to you. You slept for a whole seven years. We all know for what you came. We have seven knives. When you order the seven knives, they will build a path and a house, they will make a city, they will do everything. Our sister turned up, today we will not kill you. We will give you these knives and axes, take the path back that you came on.”

There lived an old man with an old woman, an old man with an old woman. Both of them were old, as old as each other, they had nobody. The old man thought: “If I were to go out to a place a bit higher, where fire-wood is found, (Behind their house there was a clearing) to the clearing. I’ll check what kind of animals go there, the traces of which animals are there.” He put on his skis and went out of the house up to the clearing. Along the edge of the clearing, along the edge of the forest he skied, his skis went this way and that. What was he up to? He went along the ski path, rushed on further. Sooner or later he reached a sort of a wooden house. It was apparently the house of a hunter. He went into the house, nobody was there, an empty house. Inside the house everything was hung over with skins: sables, animals. Whatever kinds of animal skins there are, it was full of them.

There lived a sister and brother. The brother went fishing every day. He came home and said to his sister: “Clean the fish. I’ll eat the head, you eat the tail, you eat the middle.” The next day he got up, went off again, went to the forest, brought his sister a fish again and said to his sister: “You eat the middle, I will eat the head, I will eat the tail, i will eat the tail, you eat the middle.” His sister said: “Why do you always feed me the middle? Why? The next time I will eat the tail, you eat the head, no.”

The Mos woman lived with her younger brother. They lived for a long time or a short time, they lived. One day the younger brother took ill. A short pillow, a narrow one, she turned the pillow now higher, now lower. The brother died. He died. She wept for him a long time, a short time, what should she do? She had so much strength, she had so much power, she buried her brother. She buried him and thought: “Where shall I go? Among forest demons, among forest spirits, where shall I go?” Well, she though: “My brother is dead and I will die too. So I will go. Over a long or a short time, how shall I live. The poor thing went, she just went and went.

“I,” he said, “am cutting grass. I’m working in the heat in the midst of so many mosquitoes. When my hand slipped, I killed all of twenty people at one time. In this country there’s a person from the rich city, he has a daughter. I’ll go there. Would it be so bad to get married? I have so much strength. I can kill a hundred people, I can finish everybody off. I have so much strength and I’m working here. What strength will I have if I live for someone?” He set off home, made some tea, drank the tea, hitched up the horse, got on and started down the path.

The sun heard that, the sun said: “If you’re going to fight, fight yourselves, what have I got to do with it?” Then the musk-rat answered again: “You, cloud, I wish you no luck. From the Urals a windy day will come and scatter you. We won’t see you anymore. It will tear you to bits: “If you’re going to fight, fight yourselves, what have I got to do with it?” But the musk-rat said to the sun: “Mother Sun, I wish you no luck. There will be a cloudy day and it will cover you and we won’t see you anymore.” Well, the cloud heard this and it will tear you to pieces.” Old man Ural heard this. Old man Ural said: “If you’re going to fight, fight yourselves, you’re swearing at me because I’m old.” The muskrat said again to old man Ural: “Old man Ural, I wish you no luck. Old man fox will soil your head, you know.” Old man fox heard this, old man fox said: “If you’re going to fight, fight yourselves, why do you bother me?” The muskrat was offended again. “Fox, I wish you no luck,” it said, “the Khanty people will come with bow and arrows and shoot you with the arrows, you’ll drop and not even know it.” But in the house there there lived an old Khanty man and woman. The old man said to the old woman: “Give me some skin to wear. Maybe an animal has fallen into the trap. I’ve got this feeling.” She said: “Get dressed and go.”

Night fell again. Mitkhui and Melesnik went outside and looked–the horse really did come out. The horse came out and went to drink water. They went after the horse, they watched from afar what it was doing. The horse went to the water, drank water and came back. It came back and they watched where the horse was going. It came back and went into the stable. They went to the old woman and said: “We must take this horse.” But the old woman said: “How will you take it? If you take the horse the demon will kill you. When night falls again when it goes out to drink water only then will you be able to take it and cross to the other side. If you make it to the other side, the demon will not catch you. He can’t go on water.”

The pot started to boil, they came to eat, but the liver was already gone. They thought: “So, the hell with it.” Old man Sawas went out again, the next day he went and the Por women bewitched him again. They bewitched him again, they came there, some kind of animal meat, they dragged everything there. They came a second time, but he did the same thing. He carried off the pieces of meat, they remained without anything.
