Barma wanted to punish Tarusa for treason, but his children Man and Manya dissuaded him. Then Barma spared Tarusa.
But Tarusa did not believe it and, together with her son Man, ran away from Barma. Man and Tarusa saddled the swan and flew away to the Ural Mountains.
And they found Dyya’s tower in the mountains. In this mansion lived Dyi and his servants - divas. When they saw Man, they attacked him. But Man defeated all the divas, and Dy himself barely escaped from him.
Night has come. Man fell asleep, and Dyy crept to Tarusa and appeared before her. Dyi was very similar to his son Churila, and just as handsome. And Tarusa fell in love with him and promised to destroy her son Man.
When Man woke up, she pretended to be sick and said that only apples from the tree of life that grow in the Irian garden could cure her. She believed that the gods would not let Man near the apples of Iriy and would destroy him. But Man flew on swans to the Irian garden and asked Lada for Irian apples. And Lada gave him apples. And he brought them to Tarusa.
Then Tarusa was supposedly tied up by Mana as a joke, and then given to Dyyu. Dyy tortured Man, and then threw him into a cave leading to the Inferno. But the white swan missed.
The swan rose to the Almighty and began to ask for Mana. And the Almighty raised Mana from the Hell. And Man again appeared at Dy’s tower. And he saw Tarusa in the arms of Dyya.
- Woe, my smoke! - Tarusa cried, - My son has returned!
Dyy began to fight with Man. And Man defeated Dyya, but forgave him, for Dyy, being at enmity with Man, took revenge on Barma for the death of Churila. Man did not forgive only Tarusa; he tied her up and brought her to the god Barma for judgment. And Barma punished Tarusa, burned her (and thus purified her) in the flames of Semargl.
And now everyone sings the glory of Manu, they also glorify Barma and Tarusa, they glorify Dyya together with Churila!
