When going they turned to the Wul Wuhl brothers or Norbis’s men, and said,—
“Tell Saias Saias Herit, Koip Herit, and Tsutsu Herit to come toward the river. We will fight them there.”
“I will,” said the elder Wul Wuhl; and turning to Chir Chuma, he said: “There is a man with a net coming from the south, Karili Herit; he will fight with you.”
The Kawas sisters came now on Tede Wiu’s side, bringing food, elkskins, and arrows for their brother, Sehinom Chabatu. They did not go where the fighting was, but stood back in the rear a little. Now Wai Charatawa came to Tede Wiu’s side. He was a very small man and left-handed, but a great chief, a brother to Sehinom and to Wik Herit. He had his hair tied up and fastened in front with a long bone sharp at one end.
Norhara Chepmis came to help Norbis on the southern side.
Before the struggle began Norbis sent a message to the brothers, asking, “Are you willing to give up that woman?”
They refused.
“Now, my people,” said Norbis, “we are going to fight. I have done what I could to persuade these brothers to give up Norwan, but they refuse, and we are going to fight a second time.”
At this moment Kiri Hubit came from the south, a strong man. He went to the east side to fight. He had only one arrow without a point.
When all these forces met, there was a terrible uproar.
