Save Komaria
– «Mamuka! Potatoes are blooming in the garden and unknown beetles are running around it»! – said the silent dog. Then he bared his face from the heat and stuck out his pink tongue.
– «And what is it to me»? – asked the Indian and began to read the book further.
– «It’s right. It’s so hot there that you don’t even want to go out under this scorching Sun»! – answered Hanukkah to his companion.
Komaria is a country. There are many interesting things in it. Everything is interconnected. If the Indians help the white-skinned Giants, then everything is fine.
Long ago, before the founding of Great Giant, the Titans roamed the earth. A lonely big man found his own kind. Their first meeting was unkind. They got into a fight. It all happened because of fear. After all, you do not know a friend in front of you or not. By mistake, one of the Titans raised his hand with a stick in greeting. The other Titan thought that the big man wanted to hit him and hit him first. When the fight ended, both formidable enemies were beaten.
Then they came to the conclusion that it is better to walk together and more fun to live in friendship. After a while, they decided to build a real city. When the construction was completed, other tall residents also came to them.
As time went. Titans disappeared from the earth, according to rumors they flew to distant stars. They were replaced by the Giants, their height was lower than that of their predecessors. The Indians from Komaria did have the smallest stature. Of course, there was also a tribe called «snails». Their red-skinned inhabitants barely walked. There was always a pot of some kind next to them. That is why they got the name «snails». The entire Komaria tribe revolved around these Indians.
A certain Yungani shaman painted a picture of the growth of Titans, Giants, Indians from Komaria and Indians from the Snail tribe.
The Indians from Komaria greeted their tribesmen by raising their left hand. So they greeted. And when they gave something, they gave this item with their right hand. If in Giantania handshakes with the right acted, then the Indians had the opposite. They did not shake hands, but simply raised their left. It does not matter who greeted the Indian woman or the Indian man.
However, if the Indian got to the Giants, he greeted according to the customs of the white-skinned tribe. Therefore, when you have a tribe, you will raise your left hand as a greeting. Showing with this gesture that you have no weapons, and you came to the Indians in peace.
The Giants of Giants appreciate friendly help. By helping them, you are helping Komaria. You will find out about this a little later. Striped beetles crawling over potatoes are Iramoka’s main ally in the early summer. They can be everywhere!
There is one legend. The two Titans planted a huge field of potatoes to feed themselves. When the green leaves of the plants appeared, mosquitoes flew in from somewhere. They hid in the shade of green foliage. As the Titans watered their vegetable garden, the ground was wet. It became a wonderful habitat for Iramoka’s troops. When the first mosquito fell in the battle with the Titan, the formidable Iramok declared war on the great creatures. One of his scouts overheard the conversation between the two Titans.
– «How many potatoes this year! We will winter easily! So, we will survive»! – said one of the contented white-skinned big men.
An inconspicuous fly rubbed its legs and flew away to the potato field.
– «Iramok»! – said the insidious fly, – «I know how to lime these Titans»!
– «How»? – the king of mosquitoes squeaked.
– «We need to summon beetles from America! We will provide them with their favorite potatoes and they will eat them. The Titans will not survive the winter and we can be the rulers of this world»!
The mosquito king liked the idea. He sent his ambassador Krantumok to the Overseas, and ordered him to convey a message to Kuzh from Colorado, so that he sailed here on a ship. After a while, a striped beetle appeared on the potato leaves. He opened a magical portal for his followers. The magic worked very simply. Yellow eggs appeared on the back of the potato leaves. Then small orange bugs emerged from them. Over time, they turned into huge red creatures with black dots on the sides. So, according to the insidious plan of Iramoka and Kuzha from Colorado, they disguised themselves as Ladybirds so that the Titans would not suspect anything. And after a while, a whole army of striped beetles was eating potato leaves. The Titans fought back the plants from these greedy and cunning creatures. The battle lasted for several weeks. It would seem that the wave of Kuzha’s attack from Colorado was thrown back, but a day later, someone gnawed the potato leaves again. And so it all started anew.
The Titans walked around a huge potato field in search of beetles. They did not notice small yellow eggs because of their small size. After all, the Titans were looking for striped creatures. And when they met red beetles with black dots, they thought they were seeing ladybirds.
At first, Iramoka’s cunning plan worked with a bang. The beetles ate the plants. The mosquitoes themselves hid in the shadow of the mighty weeds. From time to time they flew up and quietly bit the Titans.
One of the emaciated white-skinned big men fell right on the bed of potatoes. His friend ran up to him and dragged him into the house. It turned out that Great Manitou does not spare anyone. He doesn’t care if you are a mosquito or a Colorado potato beetle, a Titan or a red-skinned Indian. His Fiery Eye shines equally for everyone. As soon as the Great Manitou squints, any of the creatures will be punished by Sunstroke. One of the Titans wore a headdress in the form of a tied headscarf. So he managed to avoid the formidable wink of the Fiery Eye of the Great Manitou.
While one companion came to his senses, the skin of another Titan was tanned by the sun. The Titan who woke up immediately called his companion red-skinned. The shoulders of the Titan in the kerchief burned, and it hurt him to touch them with his hands. When he sat down on a chair or lay on his back, he cried out in pain. After the skin peeled off, it began to have a distinctive color from the Titan that lay in the house. And so the progenitor of the first red-skinned Indian appeared.
Quests from Mamuka: find the leader of Kuzh
When you fulfill the request of the White Giants, they will definitely thank you. Perhaps it will not manifest itself in words. Usually creatures from the Great Giant can present a gift in the form of some kind of overseas soda. The Indians love these drinks. The requests of the white-skinned Giants do not end with the collection of the Colorado potato beetle.
Your task: to collect corks from plastic bottles. You will need them soon for your inventions. Therefore, try to complete all the tasks in this book on time. You already have quests to collect feathers and mosquitoes. Beetles should not be taken to their secret place. It is better to give them immediately to the white-skinned Giants. They will probably show you what to do with them. Listen carefully to the Giants! And if you go out to Komaria under the scorching Sun, put on a hat.
Important: Become a Red Indian! Sunbathe in the sun, obeying the white-skinned Giants. If they tell you to go into the shadows, go away. They will say to smear with magic cream, smear. Will be ordered to wear a hat or some kind of clothing, put it on. Much will depend on the obedience of the future Indian. Once your skin is tanned and peeled off, you cannot burn again. That is, you will develop immunity to the Fiery Eye of the Great Manitou, but you still have to protect your head.
Strongest
– «Hanukkah, answer me. When you went to the places of Komaria, what did you see besides the plants»? – Mamuka asked the lying dog.
– «I saw how birds jump around the garden and crush the necessary plants»!
– «And what did you do»?
– «I chased them and drove them away»! – the dog said proudly.
– «You’re done, but you yourself also crumpled the plants and therefore the giants were not happy, listen to me further», – Mamuka said and, sitting down more comfortably, began to read the book aloud.
In addition to growing plants, Komaria is home to many magical creatures. Ants are one of its inhabitants. Who would have thought that this little insect was magical? If these insects are running near your home, then this is fortunately. This is the ancient omen of the Mamuka Indians. Ants are very strong creatures. Despite their small size, they lift fifty times their weight. Therefore, it is one of the most powerful beings on Earth. I, Mamuka, would never be able to lift fifty myself at a time, another thing is to raise my weight fifty times in a row.
An anthill is the home of ants. They have a real queen. It is easy to distinguish her from an ordinary worker. It has a pair of wings behind it. Sometimes you can confuse the queen with another creature. The male ant also has wings, but it is smaller in size. Ants bite with their mandibles or mandibles. When enlarged, the mandibles look like forceps. When bitten, they close. A forest anthill can reach the height of a giant.
As soon as the sunbeam begins to shine, the ants run out of their home and begin their work on the street. Komaria never fights with these hard workers. They are her allies. As soon as the first drop of rain hits the ground, ants begin to cover the entrances to the anthill. Therefore, near their place in the dwelling, you can find small heaps before the rain. They fill the entrances with them. Ants can also anticipate bad weather, so rain can be predicted. The main thing is not to confuse this with preparing for the night. At sunset, all the inhabitants of the anthill rush to their home. They rest as much as people do. They have a real kingdom, only hidden from prying eyes.
The Indians of Brazil have a whole rite of initiation of boys with the help of this insect. For this, an ant is taken and placed on the hand of the future red-skinned man. Redskins are also Indians, as some giants call them. The purpose of the initiation rite is to increase the immunity to pain. As soon as the ant bites the boy, he must not show that he is hurt. After that, you can take him with you on reconnaissance to the war with Iramok. An ant bite is believed to be beneficial. Ant’s mandibles contain useful substances that increase the immunity of a person or an Indian. The main thing is not to anger these insects, and they will not touch you.
– «I know, I was bitten by these ants! I immediately began to gnaw them»! – Hanukkah sighed.
– «So, you have not yet passed your ritual and have not become a real Indian», – answered Mamuka.
– «Why endure this sore bite»? – the dog asked.
– «In order to understand what your pain threshold is».
– «Threshold? But the threshold is at the door, below», – Hanukkah was surprised.
– «Listen to me carefully, now I’ll read it to you», – Mamuka said and sighed.
The pain threshold for each Indian is different. This does not mean that someone is stronger or weaker. The ant is small, but it is the most powerful creature on earth. It’s almost the same here. A small mosquito bite can hurt and make you cry. But this is not an indicator of strength. It’s just that the Indian’s body is not prepared for this. The largest pain threshold in my memory was the Wasp’s Sting Indian. While the brave Indian was eating a watermelon, Iramoka’s cunning ally, the striped wasp, flew up and stung the guy. He didn’t even blink an eye. A huge red pimple with a sting grew on his shoulder. Imagine, he couldn’t even lift a watermelon over his head! And when the evil Giant didn’t give him one more «skibble» of watermelon, he began to cry. He just felt hurt, but this is not an indicator of strength.
– «I also feel offended when they do not give one more bone»! – said Hanukkah, silently looking at the Indian with the book.
– «My four-legged friend, no matter how much you feed, there will still be little. You do not know the measure»! – answered Mamuka.
– «How can I not know the measure»?
– «Your belly is not that huge, but the Giant has it! Listen further, now I’ll read you more about ants».
You can also bite off the ass of a forest ant. It tastes sour, but healthy. It contains formic acid.
Important: only forest ants are allowed to bite, because they are clean.
Some birds specially sit on the anthill and begin to wallow in it. Angry ants start running around dirty or sore spots on the bird – this is called anting. This is how birds take care of their feathers and get rid of ticks.
– «I remember how one bit me»! – said Hanukkah.
– «If not for the Giant, you would have walked with him».
– «It’s not true, I would have chewed it off myself».
– Never: do not gnaw, do not scratch, do not tear off a tick!
– How do I understand that this is a tick? – asked Hanukkah in surprise.
– The tick cannot be confused with anyone. It painlessly, imperceptibly digs into the skin and becomes like a dark mole. It is necessary to immediately run to Giantania and tell its inhabitants that you have noticed a tick. Its movement through the body resembles a breath of breeze.
There are many inhabitants in Komaria, you will learn about this from this book. Now we already know that the creatures are allies of the Indians and their enemies. We boldly classify ants as allies, and Iramoka’s allies: mosquitoes, large mosquitoes, wasps and ticks. Other creatures will be written later. Since you completed the previous tasks, you should go through the ritual of initiation into real Indians.
Quest from Mamuka: Rite of passage
Now it will be a little unpleasant. You should go outside and find the ant. Feel free to put your hand in front of him and wait for him to climb up to you. After that, do not let it fall to the ground. Wait for the bite. If you restrained yourself and did not curl your face, endured the pain, then return the insect back where you took it. Otherwise, the creature will get lost, and the ants will run to look for it. If it hurts too much, then your test is yet to come. Wait a little and repeat the initiation ceremony again in a week.
When you accept Indians into your tribe, be sure to make sure that everyone goes through this Indian initiation ritual. The one who cries from the bite, the whole tribe protects and saves from fights, and «name-calling.» In other words, he intercedes until the future Indian begins to endure pain, having passed the rite of passage. This ritual is repeated once a week. If you have endured, then you have passed the ceremony and you don’t come back to it.
Foraging
– «Hanukkah! You’re messing around again! Sit down and listen, otherwise you won’t learn our language»! – said Mamuka, picking up the book.
– «I listen to you as always. Sometimes the white-skinned Giant lures me with food, so read and do not be afraid, I will hear everything. You know what a sensitive ear I have»! – the silent dog asked.
When the era of the dinosaurs on Earth came to an end, the first man appeared. He had to survive in harsh conditions. The first thing people did without shovels and hoes was picking berries and trying to escape from ferocious animals. The Great Giant has already defeated many, only ardent opponents remain – these are mosquitoes led by Iramoka. Hordes of squeaky creatures fly around the yards in search of their prey. Among them, there may be more terrible creatures, but about them a little later.
Many berries and vegetables are already marked on the map. If this has not been done, then why are you reading this book? You need to make a map! If you don’t know how to draw, just write it schematically, so that it’s clear to you and you can navigate on your map.
When the white-skinned Giant is kind, the inhabitant of Komaria can get something good. Almost quid pro quo, but sometimes there may be exceptions. They are called goodwill gestures. The better you treat the Giants, the better you act toward them. There is such an expression: as it comes around, it will respond. Therefore, it is possible to improve the relations of the country of Komaria with Giant by offering gifts. For this, berries or crops are usually harvested.
Before going to pick berries, «Sharp Fire» once thought and took a huge bucket. Having collected all the berries from the bushes into it, he ran to the white-skinned Giant with satisfaction. Having made an offering, as befits all Indians, «Sharp Fire» left a bucket of berries at the entrance to Giant and disappeared about his business. After a minute, he was very surprised. The White Giant went out in a rage, despite the fact that there was an offering of all the berries from Komaria.
As it turned out, «Sharp Fire» gathered underripe fruits of sour gooseberries, overripe currants and rotten strawberries. The giant forgave the red man, realizing that he simply did not know when and what berries should be picked. After that, the great Giant began to hang out a leaflet at her entrance. On it the wise Giant wrote:
The Great Giant will generously reward any Redskin for the following:
– if someone picks up a full can of raspberries – white snow from the refrigerator in a waffle cone
– if someone picks up a full can of currants – any drink of your choice
And even for some reason they hung out a photo of Hanukkah with the caption:
– Wanted, especially dangerous!
«Sharp Fire» quickly collected everything on the list and was generously rewarded. The next day, an Indian ran to the door, but nothing was written there. Thinking that the mission was valid, «Sharp Fire» again picked the berries, but received nothing. The giant was furious again. As it turned out, the berries were ripe, but that day no one wanted to make jam.
Having forgiven the Indian, the white-skinned Giant went about his business for sugar. After a few chapters of this book, he returned and was surprised. It turned out that the Indian for some reason burst into the chicken coop and chased a rooster. Without thinking twice, the evil Giant took away the book and no longer allowed Mamuka to read it.
From this, «Sharp Fire» concluded: you need to read the book once a day and perform only those tasks that are written here. If you run ahead, then a miracle will not happen, namely:
– an Indian dwelling will not be built;
– you will not learn to speak with animals and understand birds;
– you don’t understand how to make it rain;
In other words, «Sharp Fire» might not have become a leader. After all, violating the laws of this book, any Indian runs the risk of being left with nothing. Therefore, you should read the book every day and one chapter at a time. Each chapter has a thousand words. All chapters are no more than 1,500. Tasks should be completed on time.
When the white-skinned Giant needs help, he will definitely tell about it. You should not run around and ask to build an Indian dwelling before it is said here. Everything has its time. Without gaining the wisdom of the Great Manitou, none of the readers will receive what is written here.
– «Mamuka! Why are they looking for me, have I done something again»? – Suddenly the faithful dog asked the Indian.
– «I do not know! I need to read on carefully! And read aloud so that you hear every word»! – answered Mamuka.
Therefore, for everything to work out, Mamuka read the book aloud to his dog Hanukkah. While reading, he turned off the TV and music, and put his phone away somewhere. You need to be in complete silence in order to heed every word and understand what is written. Sometimes he had to read the same thing. Later, other children followed him. He read this book out loud in front of them. Later, the children entered his tribe. The guys and friends have become a real numerous and indestructible brotherhood of the Redskins. After passing all the tests and initiations, you will receive what you need. And what do you need, I will not write yet. We both know your secret.
Once the leader of the «Sharp Fire» learned that a cucumber is a fruit, and a watermelon is a berry. His surprise knew no bounds. The white-skinned Giant told him about it. The wisdom of Giant and the agility of Komaria are combined in great strength. Shaman Yungani once talked about the structure of the whole world. The following expression turned out:
Komaria in Giant, with the Great Iron Antenna on its roof. Neighbors are located near Giant. All Neighbors and Giants are part of the Great Giant. It also has a large Gordlandia.
Quest from Mamuka: Collecting by Request
As soon as the white-skinned Giant asks you for something, unquestioningly fulfill his request. For this, the Great Manitou will reward you with his knowledge, and you will become one of the Indians. Of course, to become a shaman or a leader, you will need to go through many tests. The first thing a white-skinned Giant may ask you about is to harvest some berries. Complete this task without question. The faster you do this, the faster you will go about your business. For example, seek adventure and replenish your Komariev bank. If you read very quickly and complete tasks, then well done! The main thing is not to miss a single ritual! Pay special attention to the appearance of caterpillars or some kind of potato beetle!
When you pick berries, try to remember their names. If the fruit is unripe, never eat it. Otherwise the summer will be ruined. And in order for everything to work out, be attentive and vigilant. Only a select few can see magic words. They say they have special eyesight. And if you have already completed all the tasks, and the initiations from the previous chapters, you can read on.
Great Manitou with you!
