"But if there are no Moshome about, whence could there come danger to us?" "From there;" and Hayoue pointed to distant cliffs where some of the cave-dwellings of Shyuamo were visible at the diminutive openings in the rock. "Why from there?" "From Shyuamo hanutsh." "What can Shyuamo want to do harm for?" Hayoue grew really impatient. "You think of nothing else but your girl," he grumbled.
Hayoue had reaped laurels, whereas he had harvested only shame, disgrace, destruction. Hayoue was a great warrior. He had averted a part at least of the disaster which Tyope had secretly prepared for the tribe. The hand of Those Above weighed heavily upon him; all he cared for henceforth, all he could hope for, was not to suffer the rightful doom which he had intended for Shotaye.
That much you might have shouted to me. There was no need of being so secret about it, and" he glanced at the insignificant and careless work the boy had performed "is that all you have done since you came? You are lazy, uak! Go home. Go home at once to your mother and tell her that I shall not return for the evening, but will stay with Hayoue in the caves."
"Does she talk much?" "No." "Is she easily angered?" "That I don't know. I have never teased her." "Is she a good worker?" "So they say." "Good-looking?" "Raua, raua!" Hayoue exclaimed. "Tall?" "Yes." "Strong?" "I believe so." Topanashka became silent again, and both Say and Hayoue observed the proper decorum by fastening their glances on the floor in silence.
He was angry at his father for scolding him and driving him home, in the presence of Hayoue, for whom the boy had as great a dislike as his uncle had for him. Why, it was worse than the threats and cuffs of the old Naua! It was not only an injustice, it was an insult! So the lad reasoned, and began to brood over vengeance.
They are alone. Neither has found anything yet. Zashue rises to go where his brother is sitting. As the latter perceives him he points with his arm to the east. There at the farthest end of the plain, at the foot of the high cloud-veiled mountains, a long row of foot-hills recedes in an angle. To this angle Hayoue is pointing.
"So have I, and he promised to be wise." "Had we not better speak to Zashue?" suggested Say Koitza. Hayoue remained thoughtful for a while; then he said, "I dislike to say aught against my own brother, but in this matter I dislike to speak to him." "He is Okoya's father," objected Say. "True, but he is Koshare, and completely under Tyope's influence.
Then he pointed to the clouds and whispered, "The Shiuana are good," at the same time handing the bag to his uncle. The latter's astonishment had reached its maximum; the boy's actions were utterly incomprehensive to him. Again the sound of distant thunder vibrated from the west, and the cliffs sighed in return. "They are calling us," Okoya whispered. Hayoue became suddenly very sober.
"Will you go or not, you silly, lazy, good-for-nothing whelp! Go at once, or I will lead you where your father is;" and he pretended to rise. Shyuote had not noticed the presence of his uncle. His sudden appearance upon the scene was to him an unwelcome sight, and he sped away with unusual and commendable alacrity. Hayoue was greatly amused and laughed aloud.
"Why did the people of the Tyuonyi come upon our brethren in the north by night, like shutzuna? The men from the Puye had done them no harm." "No harm?" Hayoue broke out. "Did they not murder the best, the bravest, the wisest man, our father the maseua? Was it not enough? If you do not call that a bad, a base deed, then you and all of you are as bad and as base as the Tehuas."
