He took a seat, too, and all four of them set off together. They went and went noiselessly. They came to the filed of the man from the rich town. They purposely made themselves comfortable on the field and started to build a house on the filed. The man from the rich town heard news of them: “What kind of people have arrived and are ruining the earth of my filed?” They wrote a letter, held a meeting, took the letter, hung it on a pillar. This is what they wrote: “We are four men, four warriors, one has the strength of twenty men, the second has the strength of fifty men, the third has the strength of a hundred men and the fourth has the strength of a hundred fifty men. Such warriors have come, have come with war to the man from the rich town to take a wife.”

They lived an lived, the child of tales grew for a long or a short time, it already started to jump and run. Then it came into the house and said: “I’m thinking of grandfather.” His mother said: “What grandfather are you thinking of?” “What grandfather I’m thinking of? I’ve started to think of my father’s father.” Then the woman said: “Don’t think of anything. Until your own mother, the mother whose breasts fed you says so, don’t think.” The child would not let up. Then the mother said: “How can we bear this child? People-eating demons are still at large.” Then the child said: “When I get big, I will wipe all the people-eating demons off the face of the earth.” The father said: “Right, if our child starts killing demons what will happen? My father and mother were eaten, but I couldn’t kill the demons.” The woman said: “Go, go back to your house. Go to your house, but don’t enter it right away. Make noise, knock the skis together. Knock at the corner of the house.”

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.

He drove the sheep herd to an ice-hole and at the ice-hole flayed one arm, he smeared around the ice-hole with blood, stained the ice-hole with blood to take water. “I,” he said, “went under the ice, into the ice-hole to get water. I went around in the water. Down below there are lots of sheep herds together with people. You take as much as you need, just ask. Down there it’s nice, it’s dry.” The brother went home. “But how,” he asked, “did you crawl out of the hole that people take water from?” “In what way?” he said, “dress up well, take a good run, jump up high and dive in head first. You’ll drop down, down below. Down below there’s a door, there’s a house. Go there, it’s a good place. It’s good, there are lots of herds, whatever you need.”

Mitkhui and Melesnik lived in the forest. Ear to them on the other side of the forest lived a demon. They hunted in the place where they lived, and the demon hunted in the place where he lived. Once Mitkhui and Melesnik went hunting. They went hunting and came to where the demon lived. They came to the place where the demon lived, the demon was out hunting. They went into his house, an old woman was there. The old woman said: “Why have you come, children? The demon will come now and eat you.” Suddenly the whole house began to shake. The demon was coming. The old woman took them and turned them into needles in her dress. She turned them into needles in her dress. She turned them into needles and just when she had turned them into needles the demon swept into the house. The demon swept into the house and said: “It smells of humans here.” But the old woman said: “Where should the smell of humans come from? I was just sweeping out the rubbish.”
