THE
RAVEN
Once there was this Raven who was
strolling along the shore line kicking mussels. This was where he the
Raven was born, and he was a trickster. He was taking his stroll when
the tide was low. And when he reached a place near the water's edge
he was just about to kick another mussel when the mussel caught his
leg and dug down into the sand. But while the Raven was trying to
shake the mussel off his stuck foot the tide started getting
higher.
Pretty soon the tide reached him
and the water began to rise to his body. When the tide reached his
neck he started to cry out to the mussel. "Mussel! Mussel! let me be!
If you do I will pay you beck with my cousin's kayak. "The mussel
answered, "I don't use those things".
So he yelled again, " Mussel!
Mussel! let me go! Mussel! Mussel! let me be! I will pay you back
with my other wife. "Really? the bused said. Yes, Really I will give
you my other wife if you will let me go.
And all OF a sudden the haven was
able to move his feet just a little. The mussel was starting to let
him go. But the mussel still didn't believe him completely. So the
Raven kept on promising him his wife again and again.
Until finally the big birds legs
came free and he started walking as quicklv as he could through the
water back to the shore line.
When he got there he was really
wet. But then the sun came out and his feathers began to dry again.
So it is that the Raven escaped the mussel by begging him. For the
Raven was a trickster.
