They made camp outside the village, and Blue Moccasin prepared his entrance as carefully as though Otsiningo had been their real objective.

"All must be treated with respect, Quehana. Who can tell which words will catch fire?"

"I am not wrestling."

"Be Quehana, the Arrowmaker, a man not to be messed with."

"God, Blue, that isn't Indian talk at all."

"That was for you. At the council I will sing of Quehana the killer of enemies and, of course, the conqueror of the mighty Buffalo."

"Forget the last or there will be more young braves pawing the ground-and I am not wrestling."

"I will save the story to amuse children."

"Forget the story. It isn't interesting, anyway."

"When I tell it, Quehana's part will tear a great flap from the Buffalo's back, and the power of Quehana will hurl the Buffalo to the center of the river. Then, Quehana will leap into the raging current to save Buffalo from drowning."

"Nobody will believe that. I think I will stay in camp."

"You are needed, oh killer. Don your face of death and add weight to my words."

As they left their camp, Rob said, "You know, Blue, the more I consider your description of wrestling Buffalo, the more I believe you have it exactly right.

"I'm for telling them that version."

Blue did not reply.
