"That is what I am," the little fellow bragged. "But you are tapop also," Tyame objected. "Why do you speak thus? Are you angry that you could not be used for the place?" venomously inquired the governor. "If I were in your place," retorted the Eagle, "I should do as is customary, and call upon each one in turn."
The Turquoise clan was beginning to assert in tribal affairs an unusual influence, one that really amounted to a pressure. Tyame and Tanyi particularly felt this growing power of Shyuamo at the expense of their influence.
Every one set out for the great house, talking together excitedly, but in low voices. The tapop, Tyame, and the two men who had found the body took the lead. The Hishtanyi Chayan and the Shkuy Chayan came last. The nearer they came to the great building, the louder and more dismal sounded the lamentations. The storm was approaching with threatening speed.
"Will you give it to me?" "Yes." "It is well; and now I will tell you something that you don't know yet. Our father, Kauaitshe, is fasting." "He is right," Shotaye remarked; "it will make him leaner." Both laughed, but Hayoue said with greater earnestness, "Tyame is doing penance also." "Then he is with his woman from Shyuamo," flippantly observed Shotaye; "it will make Turquoises cheaper."
They certainly acted very impartially, or they considered that already one important office, the office of maseua, or war-captain, was held by a member of one of the most numerous hanutsh, Tyame. It appeared unwise to them to refuse to as large a cluster as Shyuamo an adequate representation in the executive powers of the community.
Say knows Tyope; she mistrusts him and is even afraid of him. Mitsha is a good girl, and your mother has nothing against her; but she is her mother's daughter, and that mother is Tyope's wife. If Mitsha becomes your wife you will go and live with her, until Tyame hanutsh has a house ready for Mitsha. You will even have to stay at the home of Tyope's wife.
"You have time enough left to speak against Shyuamo," said the chief of the Delight Makers in a wicked manner. "That I shall do, most assuredly," exclaimed Tyame. "I am against giving Shyuamo any more ground than they have at present. You have enough for yourselves, for your women, and for all your children. Do more work in the field and do less penance; be shyayak rather than Koshare!"
There everybody was screaming; some were running this way, others fled that way, but none could get back to the cliffs, none into the houses, for the Moshome stood between them and their homes. They fled toward the south into the kote as a mountain sheep runs from the panther. But as tyame shoots down upon a hind, so the enemies flew after them, scattering them in every direction.
"How did the shuatyam kill our father?" His voice trembled as he uttered these words. "With arrows." "Have you brought them along?" "Yes." "How many?" "One." "Where is the corpse?" "At the house of Tanyi hanutsh." The shaman turned around. "Tyame," he called to the delegate of the Eagle clan, "do your duty. And you, too, Tapop."
In the first place, intermarriage between the clans of Tanyi and Tyame was not favourable to his scheme, which consisted in expelling gradually or violently four clusters, Tanyi, Tyame, Huashpa, and Tzitz, from the Rito.
