Blaiwas said to Galaíwa: “You must go to old Kúja’s and find out what they have done to Kûlta.”
When Galaíwa was near the house, she saw Kûlta’s wife mourning, and she asked: “Have you killed Kûlta?”
“My sisters have killed him,” said the young woman. “You must make his father think he is alive. I want the other men to come here. Then I will show my sisters what I can do.”
When Galaíwa got home, the people asked: “Is Kûlta alive?”
She said: “I didn’t see him; he was off hunting for deer.”
Blaiwas didn’t want his son to go to Kúja’s house, but the young man was drawn there; he couldn’t help going.
That day the eldest sister’s bow broke. She sat down with it in her hand; she felt lonesome. The youngest sister asked: “Why do you feel lonesome? Why don’t you mend your bow?”
“How can I? It is broken.”
The sister took it, and right away it was whole. She threw it into her sister’s lap, and said: “You think you have as much power as I have. You have killed Kûlta. Wait a while; you will find out what I can do.”
When they got home, young Blaiwas was there. The eldest [[168]]sister went in and sat down by him. The next day Kaiutois came, and then Wûlkûtska’s son, and Wŏn’s son. The four sisters wanted to stay with their husbands, but the youngest sister made them go with her to hunt for deer.
