Lun-Vot-Oika, North Wind. An old man lived in the lower part of the sea. It blew continuously day and night. Because of this, it was very cold on the ground. People suffered from the North Wind. Both winter and summer the wind blew and blew. Every day people died from the cold
One day a man said:
- I’ll go to the lower land on the North Wind. I'll fight him.
I got ready and went. How long or how short did it take to reach the lower ground? He came to the North Wind, calling him to fight. The north wind grabbed his bow and arrows and ran out of the house.
They fought for a long time, they shot arrows at each other for a long time. In the end, the man contrived, pulled the bow, and shot the arrow. The North Wind's arrow broke half of his lower jaw.
From that time on, the wind stopped blowing. It became warm. It was so hot that people began to get sick from it. Both winter and summer everything is warm. Every day people died from the heat.
How much or how much time passed, the wind began to blow again. His jaw began to heal.
Although his jaw had healed, he still didn’t have the same strength. It only blows at half its former strength. Since then, people have had a good life.
