Description: | ENGLISH: Myth about a bad spirit (named in Trumai: denets'ak), which tries to trick a young man. The spirit takes a human form and pretends to be a friend of the man, so that he can approach and harm him. The real friend finds out about the intentions of the spirit. He runs to forest and rescues the young man, who was already trapped by the bad spirit. ----- PORTUGUÊS: Mito sobre um espírito ruim (chamado em Trumai de: denets'ak), que tenta enganar um rapaz.
