Raven Makes
Wind
It was a hot summer day in July.
Raven was with his mate who was caring for her young. She was
complaining to him about how mosquitoes were always bothering her.
since he was a loving mate, he tried a couple of techniques to help
keep them away.
First he went to the beach, gathered
a cup of mud, and brought it back to his mate who was being pestered
by the mosquitoes. Even though she didn't like the idea of mud all
over her body, her mate insisted she put it on. After she covered
herself with mud there were no longer any mosquitoes bothering
her.
After a few hours the mud had dried
and she looked like dirt. But she was so stiff she could barely move.
She did not like the feeling and scolded her husband. So he suggested
she take a bath and never use it again.
Raven was still determined to find a
solution to his wife's problem. All through the night he tried to
think of what he could do so the mosquitoes would not bother his
mate. Finally he thought of something that would "blow away" his
mate! He would make wind which would keep all the bugs away from
her.
The raven did this by calling forth
the North, South, West and East winds. He offered to exchange some of
his valuable items for some of their wind. They all agreed to the
deal and gave raven four bags. They specifically told raven to open
the bag when he woke up in his house.
The next day as soon as Raven woke up
he opened each bag. And when his wife went outside she found it was
very windy, and did not complain anymore about the mosquitoes
bothering her.
From then on the wind would blow from
every direction, and ravens were seen on trees enjoying the wind
because it kept the mosquitoes away.
