Eawoto's Clothing

Once upon a time, the bird god Eawoto fell from the high palace of the sun goddess. He fell through space and onto the Earth, where the people recognized him as the chief of the seasons. They nursed him to health, but his feathers were plucked and stolen by a greedy man. The people helped Eawoto by feeding him broth and meat to help his feathers return quickly, but he was still naked and did not wish to be seen without his feathers, so he sought out someone willing to provide him with fabric. He was approached by the goddess of colors, and she provided him with a tapestry representing the seasons. He wore it over his torso where the new blue feathers were beginning to grow, and it covered him the same way a toga would cover the body of a living mortal. He thanked her before granting their people days of clear weather, and returning to the palace of the sun.
