Description:The elephant was the one who first found water. He hid it from people and drank it alone. But the mud from the water stuck to his ankles and his wife, the beautiful aardvark girl, asked the others how he could have found water and could be drinking it without sharing. Her husband pretended it was plain sand they were seeing on his ankles. The Aardvark Girl's brothers tracked him and saw him drinking water. When he went off eating trees, they drank up all the water and then filled the waterhole with their piss. When the elephant came back he thought it was plain water and went to drink. But the piss refused. As he turned away, he saw the brothers, who had spent the day making spears, sitting with their sister in their midst. The elephant tried to grab his wife with his trunk, but the brothers stabbed him so that spears met this way and that inside his body and he died. The brothers were little birds, the swallows that come with the rain.
