THE TALE ABOUT SEASONS

Once upon aВ time there were two swans inВ the world: Sudarushka and her brother Zakhar. One day, the Elk Chernobrov and his wife came toВ the family ofВ swans from the Wonderful Green Forest. Yes, there were miracles inВ this country, where the birds ofВ heaven are friends with the wild beasts. Two families sat at the table with delicious food, they ate and drank and they decided toВ make each other happy with stories and fairy tales. The Elk Chernobrov was the first toВ take the floor.

Long ago the inhabitants ofВ the Fiery Country came toВ the Wonderful Green Forest. They brought with them all the heat ofВ their country, so much so that all the living things inВ the Wonderful Green Forest began toВ wither and die. Many animals were left without food and shelter. The Wonderful Green Forest looked like aВ desert toВ match with the Fiery Country: Trees, bushes, meadow grass turned into ashes. There was aВ wasteland all around but only the hot wind ofВ dry air swept over their possessions day and night. The lakes and rivers were dry, the Wonderful Green Forest became aВ scorched desert.

Forest residents left their homes and fled toВ the country ofВ Flying Cliffs toВ the North. The beasts were sad from the misfortunes that befell them. The Elk leader ofВ all animals sought help and guidance from the great sage ofВ the land ofВ the Flying Rocks.

The elk said to the great sage: “Oh, great sage, destroy the guests from the Fiery Country and expel the heat they brought with them from the Wonderful Green Forest.”

The great sage listened to the elk and said: “Go back, help will follow you.” At this the discussion was ended.

ToВ say that the great sage was aВ wise and strict wizard would be an understatement. He taught others wisdom and the measure ofВ their desires, because he believed that desires must have aВ measure. If the supplicant wanted his desire toВ do another badly, then the great sage sent aВ test. The elk wanted the great sage toВ destroy guests from the Fiery Country, so he sent the test toВ the Wonderful Green Forest.

When the elk returned toВ their country, the fiery guests left the Wonderful Green Forest. Forest animals began toВ return toВ their homes. Soon it was raining, it began toВ get colder, aВ week later snow fell. Ice and cold dressed the trees and lakes inВ quaint white robes. It was beautiful and very cold all around.

Forest animals were struck byВ the pure, sparkling beauty ofВ their Wonderful Green Forest. However, along with the cold came hunger. Their country had become aВ mansion ofВ snow and ice. The forest animals again howled and asked the elk toВ go toВ the great sage with the request toВ expel the cold from their country.

The great sage listened to the elk’s request a second time, very carefully and said: “Dear elk, invite the inhabitants of the Fiery Country to your country, prepare gifts for them and ask them to bring with them the heat from before, then the cold and ice will melt. Your Wonderful Green Forest will bloom and blossom with vibrant colours.”
