he added, "I shall not leave you here alone. You shall go to the home you would love best of all. Tell we where it shall be."
Then the sister answered, "I love the eastern sky best of all. I should love to live there."
"It shall be so," replied her brother. "I will go up the mountain, where the little people dwell. You shall be carried to the eastern sky; the four winds of heaven shall lift you. I will look up often and see you there."
"And I," said his sister, "will look down upon you and watch over you every morning. When you see the rosy clouds you will say, 'My sister is painting her face'."
They bade each other good-bye, and He-ofthe-Little-Shell ran up the mountain side, for he was a Pukwudjee, a "little man of the mountains," as the Indians call them.
The four winds of heaven carried the sister to the eastern sky, where she became the Morning Star, and there she watches over her brother and all his people.
