Dolya wandered long and far, bringing good fortune wherever she went.

For she did a wide assortment of deeds and taught many things. She would talk about the laws of life and death, forbidding greed, and demanding respect for all creation. She showed the people how to cultivate land so that it would bear abundant crops and not wither. She also taught them how to make proper use of beasts instead of only wearing their skins and eating their meat, instructing them on how to look after them, milk them, and weave with their wool.

She explained how babies nestled in women’s wombs, how fertility depended on both sexes, and how important it was to respect one another and care about each other’s health.

Whole tribes would listen to her, nodding their heads and letting out enthusiastic shouts, and as she was leaving, they would drop to their knees and dig their nails into the ground out of sorrow.

However, as soon as Dolya disappeared from sight, all the troubles came back. The feuds were becoming even more bitter due to the greater abundance of riches that she helped them to acquire.
