"It is on the other side of the ravine, near the border to the left." Tyope pondered a while; then he said to the shaman, "Nashtio yaya, I think we should go more toward the east. What do you say?" "It is well," muttered the medicine-man. "Satyumishe," Tyope said to the runner, "go and tell the men to go along the ravine toward the Rio Grande until the trees become smaller.
It is only that woman of Tyope's who is bad, and after all she is not all-powerful." "How would it do," suggested Say, "to call sa nashtio?" Hayoue looked at her like one to whom has come a sudden revelation. "Topanashka, the maseua," he said; "you are right, koya, this is a wise thought. Nashtio is very wise. He will give us counsel that we can trust, but do you think he is here?"
Everybody thought, "The nashtio of Tzitz since his return from the council is doing penance. What can have happened last night!" Owing to the custom which compels a man to marry outside of his own clan, the abodes of the women of each clan were frequented by their husbands. They of course belonged to different clans.
"We wished to speak to you, nashtio, for Okoya, my child, has told me something that may be good, although it may also not be good. It is something I like to see, and yet it also makes my heart heavy. He has spoken about it to satyumishe, too," she nodded at Hayoue, "before he said anything to me. Therefore Hayoue came to see me, and we thought it would be well to seek your advice.
That one was Tyope, who continued the subject, as if he intended to display greater independence than the rest. Nevertheless, as no one paid attention to his speech, he felt at last constrained to drop into silence. Not for a long time, however, for as if he wished to atone for his lack of civility he called out to Topanashka, "You are late, sa nashtio!"
"I hear that sa nashtio maseua is going to the uuityam to-night; in that case Tyope will be there also." More she did not say, but Okoya treasured the hint, and made no remark about it, but at once thought that the time had come to pay a visit to the maiden.
If the evil ones are about us it is because they have followed along from the Tyuonyi! Hush, I say, do your duty at last. At the Tyuonyi, if we ever get there, we shall see further." At this moment several Queres burst from the timber. One of them cried to Tyope, "Nashtio, the Moshome are too strong, they are coming to kill you and all of us. We must away into the karitya!"
"What," said he, "the yaya also?" "Indeed, the Cuirana Naua also. Did not you know it? You are a nice Cuirana." The uncle shook his head. "That is bad, very bad indeed," muttered he. Okoya was perplexed. At last his curiosity overcame all diffidence and he asked, "What is it, satyumishe nashtio? Do you know of anything evil?" Hayoue looked at him and said, "Okoya, you and I are alike.
"My brother from Shyuamo then said to me, 'See here, nashtio Tapop, there are the people from Tzitz; they are the least in numbers on the Tyuonyi, and yet they have as much ground as we; and they raised as much maize and even more beans, for they are higher up than we, and get more water than we.
On the other hand she was herself, since the talk with Shotaye, greatly drawn toward Mitsha. This made her anxious to find out what Hayoue thought of the girl. So she put the direct question, "You spoke with your nashtio about Mitsha?" "I did." "What says he of the makatza?"
