Seed and tree reaching an imagined moon
AI interpretation; seed, tree geometry, moon scale and landscape imagined.
Overview
Nei Ikuiku throws a kimatore seed; it becomes a tree reaching the moon. At its top, blind Nei Nibarara keeps ten syrup cups. The thirsty girl drinks one, then restores the woman’s sight by blowing into her eyes.
Nibarara’s three giant sons threaten to eat the hidden visitor, but learn she restored their mother’s sight. They invite her to become their sister. Ewels’ bilingual telling ends by locating this family on the moon.
