"Now, my brother," said Olelbis to Hessiha, who lived with him in Olelpanti, "I think it is best for you to go down to our sister and stay with her. Live with her always. When your feathers drop away or are pulled off hereafter, they will become like you, and there will be hessihas on the earth everywhere. Our sister will tell you what to do. You will stay with her, never leave her. The people will call our sister Bastepomas, because she is the food-giving woman. When you see anything, let her know; when you hear anything, tell her; when you want to do anything, ask leave of her." Hessiha went down to live with his sister. Next day he saw a woman coming from the east and going west. He told Norwan, and she said,-- "Watch which way she goes, my brother. Perhaps she will come to us here." He watched. She came straight to Norwan Buli. "My younger sister," said she to Norwan, "I came out in the east, but I don't like to live there. I have left that place, and am going far away to the west. In the evening look westward, a little after sunset, you will see a red, yellow, and white person, Nomdal Lenas Loimis. I am she. I shall look nice. That is the kind of person that I am. I shall live in the west always, and you will see me there as streaks of colored light. I will turn my face to the east every evening on pleasant days, and all the Wintu people will say when they see me, 'Winis Nomdal Lenas Loimis'" (look at Nomdal Lenas Loimis). "Very well," said Norwan, "I am glad to hear what you say, my elder sister." Nomdal Lenas went off to the west. She was an immensely large woman with a big face, her hair was cut across her forehead, and this made it look beautiful. She was the first woman in the world who cut her hair in that fashion. Her face was painted in streaks of red, yellow, and white. Next morning Hessiha saw another woman coming from the east. She stopped at Norwan Buli, and said,-- "My younger sister, we came upon this earth at the same time, before the Wintu people. I am going to the west a little distance. I came out in the east, but I did not like the place there. I am going to Bohem Buli. I will stay there and live on the north side of the mountain. I will be a mountain woman. My name is Kukupiwit Pokte." She went to Bohem Buli. Norwan danced always during daylight, never stopped in the daytime, never rested till evening. Norbis Kiemila, the white oak which rolled to the southeast, looked toward the northwest and saw Norwan. "I see my wife on this earth," said he. One evening Hessiha and Norwan were in the sweat-house, and Hessiha said,-- "My sister, I have heard news to-day from Norbis Kiemila. He says that you are to be his wife." She said nothing, and Hessiha talked on: "My sister, I heard a man say that he would come to see you. He lives at Sonomyai--he is Sedit, Sedit of Sonomyai." "My brother," said Norwan, "what are you telling me?" "I am telling you, my sister, what I have heard. Sedit is coming."
