Norbis sent messengers to his friends. They went southeast, south and southwest. He sent southeast to Saias Saias Herit and south for Hus Herit. He sent for Karili Herit; for Tcutuhl Herit.
Next morning about daylight the friends of the Tede Wiu brothers came. All came who had been called, each bringing his own people. Friends came to Norbis in the same way; none of those invited failed on either side.
When all Tede Wiu’s friends had come, the elder brother confined Norwan as on the first day. He bound the house all around with mempak. They started then, and crossed the river with many people. Chir Chuma had come. He was so lame that he could not walk, and had two men to carry him. These were the two Siriwit brothers (whirlwinds). (The whirlwinds were people at that time.)
The Siriwits carried Chir Chuma on two sticks. He sat on the sticks. One brother held the sticks behind, and the other in front. They moved around with great speed, and travelled as easily on water as on land. When the two brothers had crossed the river, they saw two more lame men, one coming from the north, Chali Dokos: he was carried by Wainot Herit. The other was Sawi Herit; he was coming from the west, carried by Kichinot Herit.
After Tede Wiu’s forces had crossed the river, the Wul Wuhl brothers came from Norbis, and said,—
“There are many people coming from the south with Norbis to-day. You will have a heavy battle.”
Sehinom saw the southern people coming, and said to the elder Tede Wiu,—
“My brother, I will be with you all the time. I will guard you.”
Three of Tede Wiu’s men, Wik Herit, Tuichi Kelis, and Kilichepis, said,—
“We will go together. We will go to the eastern side, near the river, and take our people with us.”
