Inside the house, they began cutting him up, and when the man cast the mittens to his wife, Avôvang went with them, and crept into the body of the woman. And after a time he was born again, and became once more a man. There was once a man whose name was Papik, and it was his custom to go out hunting with his wife's brother, whose name was Ailaq.
But whenever those two went out hunting together, it was always Ailaq who came home with seal in tow, while Papik returned empty-handed. And day by day his envy grew. Then one day it happened that Ailaq did not return at all. And Papik was silent at his home-coming. At last, late in the evening, that old woman who was Ailaq's mother began to speak. "You have killed Ailaq."
"No, I did not kill him," answered Papik. Then the old woman rose up and cried: "You killed him, and said no word. The day shall yet come when I will eat you alive, for you killed Ailaq, you and no other." And now the old woman made ready to die, for it was as a ghost she thought to avenge her son.
And when they found Papik, he was cut about in every part. Eyes, nose and mouth and ears were hacked away, and the scalp torn from his head. Thus that old woman took vengeance for the killing of her son Ailaq. And so it was our fathers used to tell: when any man killed his fellow without good cause, a monster would come and strike him dead with fear, and leave no part whole in all his body.
