You have probably noticed that in the mountains there are very often small depressions in the stone filled with water. Knowledgeable people believe that these are small boats of hunchbacks.
Long ago, hunchbacks who did evil deeds aroused the wrath of the Master of the Heavens, and he found it necessary to destroy these freaks. He gave the lord of rain a stern order - to flood the whole world.
Having learned about the fate that awaited them, the hunchbacks quickly built themselves small boats from stone. But the Master of heaven, seeing this, made the stone very heavy.
…Then the Master of the skies sent the Lord of Rain to Earth. When the hunchbacks saw that the land was being flooded with rain, they climbed into their stone boats. But the water rose and all the hunchbacks died because the stone became heavy. Thus ended the existence of hunchbacks on Earth.
