Description / content note
-
Once upon a time there was a Chief who had a dog that was about to have some puppies. But instead of puppies it bore a child, a girl. He was very disobedient and insisted upon finding and eating bones. Now when she was fully grown, she was about to marry a chief's son. On the day she was going to marry there was a big party. People were warned not to throw the bones on the floor because people might walk on them. But in fact the chief was afraid his daughter would pick them up and revert into being a dog. But the people did not pay attention. Then the girl began to pick up the bones and they all called out "child of a dog, child of a dog". So you see, there is nothing you can hide in the long run. Story.
