Maui liked to fish with his brothers, but since he was the smallest, and not as good a fisherman as they were, they didn t like to take him fishing. His father gave him a magic fish-hook named Manai-a-ka-lani (hold fast to the heavens), and Maui talked his brothers into taking him fishing one more time. That day, he used his new hook to catch a giant fish named Mauna Kai. Maui s brothers rowed for two more days while Maui tried to pull Mauna Kai from the bottom of the ocean, but at last they had to stop rowing. That part of the gigantic fish that was above water hardened into stone and became the islands of Hawai i. The hook flew back to the heavens to become the constellation we call the Pleiades. 10052 You found a story bonus! Maui wanted his people to have fire, but only the  Alae birds, which are also called mudhens, knew the secret of making fires. One day Maui followed a column of smoke to a clearing where the  Alae birds were roasting bananas in their fire. He caught one of the birds who promised him the secret of fire if he would let her go. She tried to trick him by telling him that fire could be made from rubbing together banana stalks, but Maui tried that and it didn t work. Then she told him to rub Taro stalks together, but that didn t make fire either. Finally she showed him a dry wood that would ignite, and he let her go, but not before using his new fire to make a red spot on her head for trying to trick him. All mudhens now have a red spot on their heads because they are descended from the one that Maui caught. 10053 You found a story bonus! The sun used to travel across the sky so fast that tapa -- the bark cloth used for clothing -- wouldn t dry. A person had scarcely gotten used to it being morning before it was night again. Maui watched the sun and learned that it lived in the great volcano Haleakala, which means 'the house of the sun.' He made a rope of coconut fibers and hid until the sun came back to Haleakala to sleep at night. When the sun rose the next morning, Maui lassoed him with the rope and made him promise to stay longer in the sky each day. 'But if I stay longer every day,' the sun protested, 'I will burn all the young plants.' So they compromised. The sun would spend more hours in the sky during the summer, and more hours in his volcano home during the winter. That s why days are not all the same length. 10054 You found a story bonus! Long before Maui s time, the sky sat directly on top of the earth. People could only live in deep valleys until the great god Kane used his power to lift it up again. In Maui s time the sky grew lower again, and very dark. Because the people no longer lived only in valleys, they feared they would be crushed. Because he was the greatest hero of his people, Maui was asked to lift the sky up again. He climbed to the peak of Haleakala and bent down to set the sky upon his back. Then he used his great strength to push the sky away from the earth. It took days, but eventually the sky grew higher and its dark color turned back to blue. After that the people called him 'Maui-of-the-sky.' 10055 You found a story bonus! When Maui had finished pushing the sky back up into the heavens where it belonged, he was very tired. It was a long walk back down from the top of Haleakala, and although Maui knew the trick of turning into a bird, he was too exhaisted to manage it this time. Instead he built a giant hawk of bark and sticks and twine, and used it to fly down the mountain. In this way, Maui made and flew the first kite in the world. 10056 You've captured Maui, the trickster hero of Hawai'i. Now to find that merry wanderer of the night, Puck. 10106 Puck is safe inside the puzzle box. Next, you'll be going after Eris, the Goddess of Discord. 10151 You found a story bonus! Eris once caused a fight between the Greek goddesses Hera, Athene, and Aphrodite by tossing a golden apple into their midst. The apple was inscribed 'To the Fairest,' and since each goddess thought herself the fairest, none wanted the others to have it. They asked Zeus to intervene, but he knew better than to get into the middle of a quarrel between three goddesses. In the end, they fought over the apple for twenty years. 10152 You found a story bonus! Zeus couldn t get Hera, Athene, and Aphrodite to stop fighting over the apple that Eris had thrown to them. He asked Paris, a mortal, to decide once and for all which of them was fairest. Each of the goddesses offered Paris a reward if he would choose her. Paris declared Aphrodite the fairest because she had promised him any wife he chose. Paris wanted Helen of Troy for his wife, and that choice -- and Eris troublemaking -- started the Trojan War. 10153 You found a story bonus! The gods on Mt. Olympus didn t like to invite Eris to their gatherings, because some sort of fight or argument was bound to break out as soon as she arrived. It seemed that her very presence was enough to turn an otherwise peaceable gathering into a celestial row. It didn t matter whether or not she was invited, however -- she would usually show up anyway, and the disputes would soon begin. 10154 You found a story bonus! Eris name means 'discord' in ancient Greek, which fits her perfectly. In Rome she was known as Discordia. In both places, she was often called the Goddess of Quarrels. Given what we know about her, it s not too surprising that she named her son Strife. 10155 You found a story bonus! Eris twin brother was Ares, the Greek God of War whom the Romans called Mars. Whenever Ares went to war, Eris rode along in his chariot, along with Ares two dogs, Phobos (fear) and Deimos (trembling). The two moons of the planet Mars are also named Phobos and Deimos. 10156 You've caught Eris! The next trickster you must capture is the sly Coyote. 10206 Coyote has been returned to the puzzle box. Now to catch that prankish Monkey. 10256 You've captured Monkey. Now find the African trickster Anansi the Spider. 10306 You've caught Anansi and put him in the puzzle box. The last trickster you must find is that clever Raven. 10351 You found a story bonus! Once there were no people in the world, only magical animals like Raven. In those days all the animals were much larger than they are today. Raven was walking on the beach after high tide one day, feeling bored and lonely, when he heard a tiny little noise. He looked around, but couldn t see anything small enough to have made such a tiny noise. What he did see was a white clamshell sticking out of the sand. When he pulled it out, he heard the little noise again, coming from the clamshell. Raven looked inside, and there were tiny little creatures in it unlike any he had ever seen -- hundreds of them. These were the first people. 10352 You found a story bonus! For a while after Raven found the first people, they were too shy to come out of their shell. Raven knew his harsh voice would only frighten them more, so he used a soft, low, crooning voice to soothe their fears. Finally he was able to coax them out onto the beach, where they soon took an interest in the world around them. It wasn t long before the people got hungry and asked Raven to find them some food. He took a branch from an alder tree and shook it over the ocean. Leaves fell from the branch into the water, and when they floated up again, they were the first Salmon. 10353 You found a story bonus! In the days right after Raven found the first people, it was always dark. When Raven learned that the Sky Chief was keeping the golden ball of the sun in a bentwood box in his house, he turned himself into a pine needle and floated downstream to where the Sky Chief s daughter was getting a drink. After the young woman drank Raven, she had a child who was really Raven in disguise. The Sky Chief couldn t refuse anything his grandson asked, so Raven asked to play with the golden ball. As soon as the old man gave him the ball, Raven changed back into his bird form and flew away with it. After that there was light in the daytime. 10354 You found a story bonus! Raven once fell in love with a goose-girl, and they were very happy together even though she was a good and he was a raven. When winter was coming, though, the goose-girl wanted to fly away with her tribe to somewhere warm. Raven wanted to go with her, but he couldn t fly as far or as fast as a goose, and the geese got tired of stopping and waiting for him to catch up. When they came to Victoria Island the Goose Chief said: 'You can t cross the ocean with us. There s no place for you to stop, and you might die. You d better stay here and live.' That s why Raven still lives on the Northwest Coast of North America. 10355 You found a story bonus! Raven wasn t always a black bird -- he was once as white as snow. When the first people complained of thirst because there was only sea water to drink, Raven went to the house of Ganook, who kept all the fresh water in the world in a stone well in his house. He told Ganook a long and boring story, and when Ganook fell asleep, Raven drank up all the fresh water. But Raven was so full of water he couldn t squeeze through the smoke-hole in the ceiling to make his escape. Ganook heard all the commotion he was making and woke up. When he saw his water gone, Ganook built a fire under Raven, and the smoke turned him completely black. Raven finally escaped, but he was so full of water he could hardly fly. He had to spit out some of the water, which is why we have lakes and rivers today. He was flying crooked when he spat out the rivers, which is why all rivers are crooked. 10356 Raven has been caught and returned to the puzzle box. Congratulations! You've rounded up all the tricksters!
