Still we miss among that little band of Queres fugitives those with whom we have become more closely acquainted. In vain we look for Say Koitza, for Mitsha, for Okoya. Can it be true, as Hayoue surmised, that his bosom friend, Zashue's eldest son, is dead? The throwing about of fruit has ceased; the dance is resumed, and new figures may appear.
We are leaving the Tyuonyi; and behold, if we find our people there can be no lack of food wherever we dwell. I am Cuirana, you are Koshare. I pray and fast for the growing corn, you do the same for the ripening of the grain. It will be well." "If Shyuote is alive he will help me." Zashue uttered these words timidly. "Okoya will help me;" Hayoue spoke with great assurance.
Tyope twitched nervously. He knew where the woman had gone. "Hayoue," the man from Tzitz proceeded, "was the only one who carried weapons. He had gone out very early with Okoya, the youth from Tanyi who is his brother's child. They had started while it was yet night, following the tshinaya up to the top of the rocks.
"Tell me, but tell me the truth; did Hayoue say it was well for you to go with Mitsha?" Okoya was so embarrassed by this direct query that he could not answer at once. He stood still and hung his head. "Tell me, child," Say insisted. "He said" the words were scarcely audible "that it was well." "Did he also say it was good for you to listen to the words of Tyope and his woman?"
It is not good for man to be alone. Okoya had felt the truth of it bitterly. Now that he knew that he was not forsaken, he was filled with strength and vigour.
"It is well, and it is good for him and for the tribe," the old man asserted. "Afterward he came and said, 'Sanaya, I am going with that makatza; does she please you? I believe that was right also?" "It was right." The woman omitted the incident of her quarrel with Okoya as well as her interview with Shotaye, and said, "He also went to Hayoue and told him to speak to me for him.
It was impossible to devote to her his whole attention, for her mother had already taken her seat close by him and was claiming his ear. She offered slight attraction to the eye, for her squatting figure was not beautiful. Okoya grew lively, much more lively than he had been on his first visit. "Why should I not have wanted to see you?" he good-naturedly asked.
Okoya asked; but low, as if he were afraid of the answer. "There may be others," Hayoue muttered, "but those two are certainly the worst." Okoya felt disappointed; Tyope, he saw, must indeed be a bad creature. "Do you know whether Tyope is mourning?" asked his uncle. "I have not seen him," grumbled the other. "I am sure he will look as if his mother had died," scolded Hayoue.
"That I cannot tell you," said the woman. "Only the Shiuana know. Besides, there are bad people who stop the rain from coming." "How can they do that?" cried both Okoya and Mitsha in surprise, neither of them having heard as yet of such a thing. "I must not tell you that," said Hannay, with a mysterious and important air; "you are too young to know it.
So he assumed an air of quiet indifference and said, "I think it is better, after all, not to see Mitsha any more." With this he attempted to rise; but Hayoue held him back, and spoke very earnestly, "No; it would not be well. You are fit for each other, and you must come together. I will help you all I can." "Can you help me?" Okoya exclaimed, delightfully surprised. "Perhaps I can, perhaps not.
