13. Legends & Stories The Great Flood There is a legend called The Great Flood and it’s about a clown boy who has a hunting dog. Waw-goosh (the fox) wanted to kill the dog so he made himself look like a deer so when the hunting dog came to kill the deer the fox killed him. Fox then made a barbecue and invited as his guests whales, serpents, and all the monsters of the deep, that they might be very happy with him that he had slain the dog of the prophet. The clown boy wanted revenge so he shot a poisoned arrow through the sea god’s heart and yelled “Revenge! Revenge!” Then the monsters and other creatures of the sea drowned land. The clown boy called to God of Heaven to save him. A boat came out of no where and let down a rope and then he was safe. He ordered Aw-milk (the beaver) to dive down and bring up some earth but he came up lifeless. The beaver ordered Waw-jashk (the musk-rat) to dive down and get some earth because he dives best. He came up lifeless too, but the clown boy blew into his mouth and he was alive again. Just like what he did to the beaver. The musk-rat had a small quantity of earth, which the prophet rolled into a small ball, and tied to the neck of Ka-ke-gi (the raven) and told him to fly over the water and he may find dry land. Soon he found dry land and they called themselves the repopulated the world.
