It is not right, brother, for you to think such things of your mother.

You have done her a great wrong, for I tell you again she is good and she is your best friend.

Where do you belong?
Whose blood is yours?
Is it your father's?
Are the Water people your people?
No, Tanyi is your hanutsh.

Your mother's clan are your kindred.

Mind, satyumishe, our life is in our blood, and it is the blood of her who gave you life that flows in your veins.
