Then with pomp and splendor the bride was borne from her father's home to the canoe of her youthful husband. Stepping high, half fly- ing, with pride the Thunder Bird perched upon the bow of the wedding barge, and then across the water with a roar of thunder and a song of victory the party took its way. Wuket, the great War Chief CHAPTER EIGHT YAKLUS AVENGES THE DEATH OF HIS BROTHER THE SORCERER YAKLUS was a chief feared throughout the na- tion. In speech he roared and barked like an old bull s...ea-lion. In warfare he severed head from body with a single stroke. His warriors were but little less gorilla-like. His village stood on a rocky shore where the waters rushed, roared, and spumed. And with the ebb and flow of every tide sucking whirlpools, like ever-hungry maws of ocean monsters, waited for their prey. For many days had this fearful chief made preparations for war. Extra bow-strings and arrows sharp had he counseled, also many spears, clubs, knives, and slings. Canoes were polished and armor made.
