The First Fire
Now there is fire in all rocks, in all sticks. But long ago there
wasn't any fire in the world, and all the Yaquis and the animals
and the creatures of the sea, everything that lived, gathered in a
great council in order to understand why there was no fire.
They knew that somewhere there must be fire, perhaps in the
sea, maybe on some islands, or on the other side of the sea. For
this reason, Bobok, the Toad, offered to go get this fire. The Crow
offered to help him and also the Roadrunner and the Dog. These
four, the winged animals and the dog went along to help. But
Bobok, the Toad, alone, knew how to enter the water of the sea
and not die.
The God of Fire would not permit anyone to take his fire away.
For this reason, he still sends thunderbolts and lightning at
anyone who carries light or fire. He is always killing them.
But Bobok entered the house of the God of Fire and stole the fire.
He carried it in his mouth, traveling through the waters.
Lightning and thunder made a great noise and many flashes. But
Bobok came on, safe beneath the waters. Then there formed on
the flooding water, little whirlpools of water full of rubbish and
driftwood.
Suddenly not only one toad was to be seen, but many swam in
the waters, many, many toads. They were all singing and
carrying little bits of fire. Bobok had met his sons and had given
some fire to one, then another, until every toad had some. These
carried fire to the land where they were awaited by the Dog, the
Roadrunner, and the Crow. Bobok gave his fire to those who
could not enter the water.
The God of Fire saw this and threw lightning at the Crow and
the Roadrunner and the Dog. But many toads kept on coming
and bearing fire to the world. These animals gave light to all the
things in the world. They put it into sticks and rocks. Now men
can make fire with a drill because the sticks have fire in them.
