Elop carefully struck the rock with another rock, chipping away at the long, narrow rock. Soon, a sharp point was formed. The stone was as long as Elop's hand and he deemed it right for his need. He then took one of the long, stout pieces of wood and affixed the new blade to a groove in the stick. He then wound a long piece of sinew around the groove.

Elop's final act was to dip the weapon into a stone bowl with melted bear fat. He coated the tip to just beyond where the sinew wrapped around shaft and stone. He then placed the stone very close to the fire he'd built. Before beginning to chip away at the next piece of flint, he checked the five short spears he'd already rested near the flame.

Three of the spears were ready and he gathered the three into his hands. Then he thrust the spears, point first into a nearby snow embankment. The snow gave off a fearsome hiss as the very hot stone cooled instantly.

When Elop had completed the manufacture of two hands of short spears, he secreted the spears; as the son of the Riaf Chief, Elop had some that would gladly undermine Elop's plans. Jealousy and internal strife, it would seem was the way of the Riaf people, the people of the ice and snow.

There was talk of land many days walk from the domed huts of the Riaf people where there was no ice or snow. To reach these lands, one would wait for the great orb to awaken from dark and begin walking, keeping the great org to the bird hand. When the great orb was directly overhead, it was wise to stop walking, else one could become confused as to which direction to travel. Then, after having a meal, when the great orb began to travel along the fox hand, begin walking again, always keeping the great orb to the fox hand. And when the great orb lay down, leaving the small orb to light the way, it would be wise to find shelter during the dark. In dark, many creatures did rise and roam, using the dark to cloak themselves. They were ferocious and did prey upon the hapless hunter that had not sought shelter and had not readied a fire.

Upon entering the domed hut, Elop sought out Suna and Avluv. Both Suna and Avluv smiled shyly at Elop, the virile, handsome son of their Chief.

Suna was a striking beauty, with hair the color of freshly fallen snow. Elop had spied upon Suna and the mother of Suna as the two bathed one another in the hot stream to the rising great orb's direction from their domed hut. Mother and daughter did possess breasts that would suckle many children. Suna and her mother did possess hips that were wide, hips that could easily bear many children. And Suna and her mother had fur between their thighs that was as white as the snow.

Avluv, like Elop, had hair the color of bark of the trees. Her eyes, were the color of the rising sky. Her breasts were large, ready to suckle a child and her hips were well-formed, ready to bear children.

His father and his mother waved Elop to where they sat, awaiting the meal of the dying great orb. With smiles and soft touches, Suna and Avluv bade Elop to obey his mother and father

Reffus, Elop's mother did notice the distended condition of his loincloth as he parted company with Suna and Avluv. She smiled, pointing to his condition and Elop had the grace to blush. The Chief alerted his two young wives and pointed to his son, his only child's erect cock and distended loincloth. Elop blushed hotly as the Chief laughed a scornful laugh and his two younger wives giggled. Elop's mother turned and glared at chief and chief's younger wives. The wives ceased their laughter but Chief scowled at his first wife.

After the meal, Elop crawled to his pile of furs and slept; the rising great orb would bring a most fearsome challenge for Elop.

Even before the great orb awakened, Elop pulled on his loincloth and his head covering. None within the domed hut was awake as he slowly made his way to the flap of the hut. Snow had fallen while the Riaf people slumbered; the flap was heavy and hard to move. Elop resisted the urge to grab a handful of snow and hurl that snow at Krej while Krej slept.

Krej was one of the young men that vied to mock Elop, undermine Elop's status in the eyes of the Riaf people. Krej and his cronies would think nothing of rising up and slaughtering Elop if Elop's death would benefit their families.

Elop found his spears and loosely bound the two hands of weapons with a thin strip of leather. He made a loop in the loose end of the leather and looped that over his bird hand shoulder. This left his bird hand free to pull the drag behind himself as he journeyed.

He did think briefly of putting his spears onto the drag; the cord was cutting into his shoulder as he walked. But he knew he needed to keep all of his spears close at hand, close for the ready action. Then, grabbing his long spear in his fox hand, Elop started walking, keeping the great orb to his fox hand as he walked.

Elop heard the great Snow Bear before he saw the beast. The large male was attempting to break the ice over the stream, hoping to catch a fish or two for a meal. Preparing to strike, Elop gave a loud exclamation.

The male ceased his efforts to break the thick ice and looked at Elop. The snow bear decided that Elop would make a fine meal. Rising to his full height, the snow bear let out a loud roar. Elop also let out a loud roar and the snow bear lumbered toward the foolish human.

Elop's long spear jabbed into the snow bear's massive chest. The snow bear let out a second roar, a roar of pain and of anger. He swatted at the long spear as Elop pulled a shorter spear from his sling.

The snow bear let out a roar as the second spear entered his chest. A third, fourth and fifth spear jabbed into his chest and soon the bear toppled over, dead.

Elop waited until he was sure the beast was truly done before retrieving his bloodied weapons from the bear. Then began the long effort of dragging his kill home to the domed hut.

Reaching the stone ridge that protected the hut from the fierce winds that blew from the large mountain, Elop wiped the sweat from his brow. He labored to remove the bear's claws and threaded one hand and one foot's claws onto a knotted loop of sinew. Then he threaded the claws of the bear's other hand and foot onto a second loop of sinew.

The hide was scraped clean of meat, fat and tendons. Then, with a shudder, Elop used snow to cleanse his flesh of the blood of his kill. His spears were now put to use in holding the animal's pelt aloft so that it could dry and cure.

There was much celebration when Elop dragged the carcass of the bear to the domed hut. The Chief smiled and pounded his son on his back. Even Kuskid nodded his approval of the bear meat. Krej did grumble that it seemed to be a very small bear. The Chief glared angrily at the mother and father of Krej and the two did silence Krej, lest they be denied any of the bear meat to enjoy.

Each time the great orb rose from slumber, Elop trekked to his site and checked his pelt and his necklaces. When the pelt was fully cured, Elop took the fur and rolled it carefully. He held the fur with his fox hand and the necklaces with his bird hand and returned to the domed hut. He presented the very large snow bear pelt to the Chief. He then presented the first claw necklace to the mother of Suna. With gasps of pleasure, the mother of Suna draped the necklace of claws about her neck. The mother and father of Avluv looked on with wonder as Elop approached them and knelt in respect to the father of Avluv. He then presented the father of Avluv with the second necklace of claws.

Again, Elop approached his father, the Chief of the Riaf people. Pointing first to Suna, Elop then pointed to himself. Then he pointed to the smiling Avluv and again pointed to himself.

With a grunt, Kuskid grabbed Chief's arm. Chief looked from his son to his friend Kuskid. The two elder men huddled together and mumbled to one another.

Kuskid pointed to Suna then to himself. With a loud grunt and scowl, the Chief pointed to Suna, then to himself. Kuskid looked at Suna, then the Chief and hung his head. Then, the slender elder pointed to Avluv, then to himself. The Chief looked at the no longer smiling father and mother of Avluv and the deeply frowning Avluv. With a grunt and a nod, the Chief agreed. The Chief would take Suna as his fourth wife and Kuskid could take Avluv as a wife.

With a stern look, the Chief denied his son's intentions. Elop stared at his father with grave disappointment, pointing to the large pelt he'd gifted to the Chief. The Chief dismissed his son with a sneer and a wave of his hand; the pelt was of no importance.

Reffus, mother of Elop gave a bitter laugh. Chief turned to glare at his first wife. With another scornful laugh, she pointed to the two younger wives of Chief then mimed great disappointment. A few of the women, watching the tableau did giggle. When the chief abruptly turned to glare about the hut, the women ceased with their giggles. Even in the silence, the Chief flushed angrily.

Reffus again pointed at the two younger wives, at herself, then at Suna and again mimed frustration, disappointment. Chief waved at his wife to cease with her mockery.

Reffus then pointed to Kuskid and again let out a scornful laugh. She reminded Chief that Kuskid had once had a wife, Eugnot. And Eugnot had decided that life beyond the domed hut, life outside of the protection of the Riaf people was preferable to uniting with the very poorly endowed Kuskid.

Kuskid barked angrily as Reffus indicated his very small manhood, causing the women to titter and some men to laugh at the small man. Kuskid flushed angrily but when Reffus invited him to bare his loins, prove her wrong, the man hid his face from the light of the central fire.

Reffus indicated that Chief should allow his son to unite with Suna and with Avluv. After all, Elop had proven his worth; the large animal fur was proof; the bear's claws was proof, and the meat the Riaf people had enjoyed was proof.

Elop waited, holding his breath for his father's decision. In truth, Suna was his first choice, but if Chief decreed that Elop would only gain Avluv this would be agreeable to Elop.

While they waited for the Chief's decision, Kuskid crept forward again. The man mumbled to the Chief that he should not allow Reffus, a mere woman, to order him about. After all, he was the Chief. He was a mighty and brave hunter, and a fierce warrior.

The Chief showed that he'd made his decision already. Suna should be his fourth wife and Avluv would become the wife of Kuskid. Reffus again protested. Chief drew the obsidian dagger, the black stone dagger used for ceremonial sacrifices and celebrations and slit the throat of Reffus. The woman clutched at her throat as her blood spewed forth.

As his first wife slumped to the ground, her life flowing from her wound, the Chief looked around to see if anyone would dare challenge his authority. With a sneer, he held the ceremonial dagger out in challenge.

Elop snatched the dagger from his father's grasp and plunged the dagger directly into the rotund man's belly. He drew the blade upward, slicing through fat, muscle and bone. Reaching the bellowing man's heart, Elop carved through the rapidly beating organ until it ceased.

Kuskid shrank away, true fear in his eyes. He slunk toward the flap of the domed hut, intending to distance himself from the bloodlust of the young Elop.

Turning and facing the Riaf people, Elop held the bloody dagger in his fox hand. He then used the blade of the dagger to draw a line on palm of his bird hand. Taking the dagger in his bird hand, he then drew a line on the palm of his fox hand. This symbolized to the Riaf people that he would rule with both hands, never favoring one over another. He would be a fair chief to the Riaf people.

The body of Reffus was placed in a deep hole of snow. When the great orb became stronger and melted the ice away from the stream, the preserved body of Reffus would be placed upon a raft of two or more logs and her body would float toward the large water that had no end. Floating out to the water that had no end, Reffus would have no end.

The body of the Chief, however, was simply brought to the fringe of trees where the animals of the light and of the dark did come to forage. These animals would pick at his flesh and gnaw upon his bones. It was considered a great dishonor.

Kuskid, Elop decided, would keep vigil over the body of the Chief. Kuskid begged, whined, wheedled and cursed as he was tied securely to a tree, looking at the bloated body of his friend, ally and protector. Using a common dagger rather than the ceremonial dagger, Elop, ruler of the Riaf people sliced the arms, legs, hands and feet of Kuskid. The smell of fresh blood would draw the animals.

That dark, when the great orb had gone to sleep, the Riaf people brought gifts of meat and other foods to their new chief. The father of Avluv even brought fermented juice of the berries that grew near the domed hut. Elop invited the former wives of the old Chief, Avluv, and Suna to imbibe the potent liquid with him. He also invited the mother and father of Avluv and the mother of Suna to imbibe with them.

One by one, the Riaf people settled for slumber. Elop and his horde had eaten and drank their fill and Elop settled down for his own slumber. Yert and Owt, the former wives of the Chief, both fair haired maidens not much older the Elop did arrange themselves alongside the new chief. When Elop looked quizzical, Owt grunted and pointed to herself and to Elop. She then pointed to Yert and to Elop; they now belonged to the new Chief of the Riaf people.

Elop's arguments ended with Owt removed her coverings, revealing her chubby body. She had large breasts with large, pronounced areolae and a light thatch of hair covering her sex. Her hips were wide, the hips of a woman.

Yert also removed her own covering, then assisted Owt in removing Elop's loin cloth.

Elop grunted loudly when Owt bent and took his rampant manhood into her mouth. Yert rubbed Elop's hairy testicles while Owt used her mouth to pleasure Elop.

With a grunt of alarm, Elop spent mightily into the mouth of Owt. With a smile, Owt removed her mouth from Elop's manhood. She pressed her tightly pursed lips to Yert's lips and the two shared Elop's spending. Then Yert got onto hands and knees, waggling her luscious buttocks in invitation.

Owt's mouth had felt as a dream on Elop's manhood. But Yert's snug, wet sex caused Elop to cry out as he thrust into the snug heat. Owt encouraged Elop to grab onto Yert's breasts, to fondle and squeeze the wife's firm breasts.

Yert cried out in pleasure as Elop hammered his manhood into her sex. Her pleasure was increased as Elop firmly grasped her breasts and tugged her nipples.

With a bark, Elop spent mightily into Yert's depths. Owt used her mouth on his manhood again, and when he'd risen to full hardness, Owt positioned herself on hands and knees as Yert had done. Owt waggled her full buttocks and giggled happily as Elop mounted her.

In the light of the great orb awakening, Elop affirmed his desire to joint with Suna and with Avluv. To his surprise, the mother of Suna indicated that he should join with herself as well. She assured Elop she would bear him a son, an heir. For the briefest of breaths, Elop turned to seek guidance from Reffus or the Chief. Then he remembered, he was without Reffus. He was the Chief. With a nod, Elop embraced the mother of Suna, accepting her as his wife.

One of the men alerted Elop that they had need of meat. Elop waved together the men of the Riaf people and decided, one hand would travel to the ridge of large stones; the long eared fast moving brown animal were known to have their burrow within the stones. The other hand of hunters would travel to the fringe of trees toward where the great orb first appeared when awakening. The large animal with branches upon his head often foraged for leaves and grass in this area.

The hunters that traveled to the stones were able to snare several of the small long eared animals that hopped about. The hand that traveled to the fringe of trees did not fare so well. They'd only seen the animal that eats other animals foraging about.

At first light, again, Elop sent one hand of hunters to the trees that lay to the great orb's awakening. The other hand went to the fringe of trees that lay to the area where the great orb slept.

Again, one hand managed to bring in a good hunt. They had managed to find two animals with branches on their heads. And the other hand of hunters again found no meat.

Elop looked at the second hand of hunters. He did notice that Krej was with this hand of hunters. Elop also noticed that Krej wore a look of one that is satisfied. A hunter that has failed in the hunt should not wear this look.

That look of contentment grew when Elop indicated that he would lead this hand of hunters on the next hunt.

That look of contentment vanished when Elop indicated that the hand of hunters that had found no meat would enjoy no meat with that meal. There was grumbling among these men and among the wives of these men. There was the piteous cries of the hungry children, the children these failed hunters had fathered.

As the great orb slumbered, Elop did join with the mother of Suna. Rather than getting onto all fours, the beautiful woman pulled Elop to lay on top of her. Her lips sought his lips and they pressed their lips together. He eagerly thrust his manhood into her very wet depths and she clung to him with great passion.

After a brief rest, she again urged Elop to join with her. Then, after they had drank some melted snow, she again bade him to join with her.

When the great orb began to herald its presence, Elop was already following the tracks of a large animal with many branches upon its head. His drag was left by the fringe of trees, just before the banks of the frozen water. For a moment, the magnificent animal paused its efforts to break through the shelf of ice, searching for water. Elop held very still. Both Elop and the animal heard the crunch of the hard, unbroken snow from behind Elop.

Elop fell to the snow. Krej's spear flew past Elop and the animal rapidly scurried away.

Elop rose from the security of the snow and faced his now unarmed adversary. The hand of hunters looked from Elop to Krej, waiting to see what either man would do

Elop feinted as if he were to throw his spear at the very frightened man and Krej broke into sobs of fear.

One by one, the hand of hunters came to stand with Elop. But Elop would have none of these men with him. Angrily, he waved them away. He forced them to stay at the fringe of trees.

Returning to the domed hut, Elop gathered the women and children of these hunters. He had them pile their belongings onto his drag and pulled the drag, bewildered women and children following him.

At the fringe of trees, Elop let it be known Krej and his hand of hunters would no longer belong to the Riaf people. These hunters were to take their wives and children and walk no less than two darks away from the realm of the Riaf People.

With a roar of anger, Krej rose up, his spear once again in his hand. Elop had anticipated this reaction and before Krej could brandish his spear, Elop thrust the blade of his own spear directly into the head of Krej. He was quick to wrest his spear from the skull of Krej, lest any other hunter decide to challenge Elop. But no man did.
