Reading Notes:Native American Marriage Tales, Part B

Dog Husband
Now, how can i make this really dark? Oh mother raises her children to take revenge on the village that shunned her for her rape-rape that could have been by some mechanics of the gods. Basically she raises her own army. Before then all the canines in the area were dogs-the village had killed off the wolves. Her children become wolves because they were raised savage and not by man kind. The children end up killing and eating the village as a warning from the gods to leave nature as it should be.

True Bride
nope- I want her to give birth to real animals and several more than the story-but I want them each to have the ability to turn into humans with another special characteristic. The mother gets lock away-but the husband continues to lie with her in hopes that she will eventfully conceive a good son, and that all her children-no matter how beastal, are useful to him. The children are treated well, and so is the mother despite her confinement. Step mother gets angry and decides to kill the mother, but the children each find a way to thrath her plan. The last child is born and grows up-ends up being the one to kill the stepmother and free his mother. Mother marries someone else and gives birth to a human pup- who chooses to become like his siblings- they all become gods in the end.
