to see you on Buyan Island, even though you can be here one more day and one night.

      They said everything to the girl, and the old men bowed to her in a belt as an equal. We looked strictly at Gemini, and there was no blood on their lips, and their fists clenched on their staffs so that their fingers turned white.

      “You see, Ulle,” she said, grinning bitterly, and wiping away a tear with her left hand from her cheek, her lips curled as she prepared to cry, “they are already driving me, but I haven’t done anything bad to them.”

      “So think Wolf, do you need me like that?” She turned to the boy.

      “Better you are not and never happen,” the boy replied smoothly, “who refuses his own?”

      He looked at all this and darkened his face to Ull, bowed to the ataman in his belt, and said:

      – Forgive me, Arpad, I will leave with my sister, I will settle on Alatyr, since she is expelled from Buyan Island. There is no place for us here, we will live on the Hidden Island. If you need me, look for me there, I will bow to earthly Mare to accept.

      “And you do not hold onto us evil, Gemini, be happy on Alatyr,” said Arpad, bowing for all.

      Seven were talking to each other in such a way that no one heard: “Everything happened as it should, the Twins will return to God’s island, as it should be, and then trouble will come with them.”

      The Twins began to gather, and with them, and Leah, Arpad prepared a boat with four oarsmen, folded into it and gifts from youngsters. Send off few people, among them Arpad and family. The warriors dragged the boat into the open water, everyone began to say goodbye, the Twins waved their hands to them, and they wished good luck in return.

      “In four years I will come after you,” Wolf cried.

      “How it will be,” Al replied to him, laughing.

      And he sailed, but earlier than promised.

      Gun woke up in his home, his mother and father slept in the next room, and here two of his brothers slept, in the other room his sisters rested. He got used to sleeping on a belt bed, on Buyan-island slept on a wooden couch covered with skins. Yesterday, only came the lodges with the grown-up sons of the leaders, and by the evening they dispersed to their villages. And before that there was a notable feast in honor of the new soldiers who had passed the teachings of the Seven, whose mentors in the military business were themselves thirty chosen soldiers, and Arpad, chieftain of the forces of Buyan Island.

      All settled on the banks of the Ob, covered food, so that representatives of the Seven Tribes would strengthen their Union. Gun sat with his friends, Arius and Tal. Three girls, about fifteen years old, Sisters Aria and Tala and Guna’s sister, Rada, came up here.

      – Hello brother, for six years you have matured. And is Ull with you? “And she turned to Guna, looked around at all the feasts,” as they tell about him, I don’t see him.”

      – I went to Alatyr Island, with my sister.

      “They say more about her than about her brother,” added Malina, sister Aria, “you do not know what to say about her.” We are the same age, and the witch, they say, is cleaner than Pryakhs. She rushed, they say, to cure her brother’s enormous deer, put a nettle shirt on him, and healed his icy heart – she said so, and it was visible, and flushed with excitement.

      – Ice?? – threw up her hands Rada.

      – Well, icy, icy. What are you so excited, glad? – With a smile, looked at her, looked around with a sly look and elbow hit in the side of sister Tala, Zana.

      Gun looked at Raspberry, and she liked him, the girl liked him, her hair was blond, the braid was long, beautiful, and her face was different on Ella – her nose was crooked, her face was stretched, her lips were full, like all temporal rings on her head, and beads of multicolored stones on the neck. Malina also looked at Gun, smiled.

      – Well, brave knight, you take away your eyes from a maiden? Isn’t that pretty? Or, too, to Elysia going to get married? So they say, is she married? “Malina laughed, and Zana picked up the laughter.

      “The wolf is small and distant,” Gung remarked, “and Ullu helped to find the magic flower.”

      “Yes, Ull, I suppose I found the flower myself, turned around with a wolf, found it,” Rada said blushing, “you are all brave heroes, were afraid to approach Ella, and the Wolf was not afraid, Arpadov was a son.

      “What you didn’t want, exactly,” said Gun, “you’d see Rada see how orcas would sail to her, say hello, how to the sea maiden, talk to her. Witch she is a witch.

      “Witch she might be, so how many of you have healed?” Is she angry? You still say. That she is Ice Tsarevna. And brave, through the bull jumped. And it was you who brought her from the shelter Prykhs, Ull to save, and not she was cramming with you. After all, Ulla could have been brought to her brother.

      – Your truth, sister. And we are to blame. Seven were ordered to be brought, and we were brought, and Seven were kicked out without honor, “answered Gun, with his head drooping.

      – Do not be sad, warrior. And the hair is already growing on the head, and not just the children’s strands. Will you send wreaths with me into the Ob River? “Asked Malina, looking boldly into his eyes.

      “So then send your matchmakers to you?” Gun smiled, getting up.

      “Really, I was frightened,” a girl stood before him, and a girl laughed and laughed, “I am a business girl, now,” she pointed at Aria, “ask your brother not to lie about it.”

      “Maybe Arius has long wanted to marry you,” he said with a smile and turned to his friend. – Dreaming, Arius?

      “Long ago,” the young warrior glanced at his sister, “can you get married?” The father gives a good dowry, – and he raised the thumb of his right hand, and then stretching his arms to the side showed the size of wealth, – In what!

      “Then it’s decided,” said Gong, looking attentively at the girl, who blushed, “when to send the matchmakers, Arius?”

      Sister Tala, Zana looked at these courtship with her hand over her mouth, so as not to laugh out loud.

      “It is necessary now to marry Aria,” said Malina, after thinking, “Why pull, or else everyone will disperse to the camp, cows graze.” Arius, look, think. Zana is a beautiful girl from a good family. Right after all, Tal?

      “Of course,” accepting the rules of the game, the young man agreed, “you think Arius.” And besides being beautiful, she also bakes good pies.

      – Now we will bow to the fathers – mothers, and the matter is harmonious.

      “And I thought on Bojan, that the most difficult thing to jump over the bull,” added Tal, “and I will go to my father and mother, and yours, Gun, and your parents, Arius, will call.” We need to solve everything today. Tomorrow is also a difficult day, a bear wedding.

      Tal ran very well, only Ull overtook him, unless of course the young men ran seriously, so the young men and women who had played started not catching the quickest friend, sat down in a row and thought. The fact that parents will say approve or angry.

      “Malina, I’m seriously ready to marry,” Gun said quietly.

      “Who,” the girl didn’t understand.

      – On you, Light Malina Silovna, and ready to ask your hand from your father’s Strength and your mother Ora.

      “I will be a good wife, Gun,” the girl said seriously this time.

      Adults approached, not just adults, but the leaders of the tribes, walked sedately, slowly, waved mosquitoes away from the branches. Behind them, modestly smiling all over his face, went
