“I am in this world now,” said Norwan to herself. “I will look around everywhere to see from what places people are coming.”
She lived alone in her sweat-house, which was called Norwan Buli Hlut, remained in the house and danced during daylight.
Olelbis looked down at this woman and said,—
“This is my sister, who has come up before the new people on earth. I don’t know what she will do yet.”
When Olelbis was building his sweat-house in Olelpanti, he cut a piece from a white-oak tree, and this piece rolled down outside the sky to the lower world, where it became a people in Nor Puiken, in the southeast, and that people were there before the present Wintus came out of the ground at Tsarau Heril.
“My dear sister has come up before the Wintus, and will be with them hereafter,” said Olelbis. “I have not settled yet how her work is to be, have not made her ready for it.”
He put his hand toward the southeast then, and took yósoü (a plant that has a red blossom). He gave this plant to Norwan, and said,—
“Take this, my sister, and when you dance use it as a staff. It will have a blossom on the top which will be blooming always.”
He reached southeast to the same place, took a small bird, plucked a feather from each wing, gave the feathers to Norwan, and said,—
“My sister, thrust these through your hair, just above your forehead, one on each side. These feathers will begin to sing in the morning early; you will know by them at what time you must begin to dance.”
