CHARACTERS / Moasäm Beps South Wind's Daughter / Tsákiak A Bird (English name unknown)
At Euks a great many people were starving to death; they were so weak they couldn't stand. It was winter; snow was falling all the time. The people were out of doors. They didn't live in houses. Tsákiak was the only person who had a house. He took people in, warmed them, and gave them a little to eat; he hadn't much.
