re people obeyed the gods implicitly. Different animals used to live on that land: cats, dogs, sheep, cows, camels and many other wild creatures. There used to grow different trees and bushes also like apple trees, grapes, pear, peach and cherry trees and many others with tasty fruit.
People on that land were also very different. Some of them used to submit the others, and they were called wicked. They bit animals, chopped fruit trees and worshiped the Lord Atundash – he used to have the power equal to the power of three bulls. He could smash any stone with his fist and could snatch a huge tree.
His tremendous power enslaved weak people in his attempt to conquer the whole world. However, it was impossible to conquer a huge world and all the people, in whose heart the love, loyalty and justice live, because lord Sumur, who was Atundash’s blood brother, protected them.
Sumur was the complete opposite to his brother. He called all the living nature and was a very kind man. Besides, his power was thousand times greater than Atundash’s.
He could turn a mountain upside-down with one hand and wrest the tree from the root with one blow only. Nevertheless, Sumur did not want to hurt animals and trees, which he considered his friends, and to weak people, which he considered his brothers.
Lord Sumur used to tell that only alive can give birth to live and the Lords of the universe just help it. The sun warms the land and the water makes the soil wet. The moon brings light and piece in the darkness of night and nature creates life, and people should help each other. They should feed animals and look after them and then they will love the people back. Cows will give milk; camels will give chal and help to carry cargo. Moreover, sheep will give wool for people not to get cold. Sumur also used to tell that it is important to care about the trees and bushes, which are the ancestors of all the living. You need to give them fresh water and plow the soil with the arrival of spring and then you will have delicious fruits: apples, cherries, pears, peaches and many other fruit and berries.
“My brothers, people!” powerful lord Sumur was shouting from the high mountain, “love and help each other. It is only kindness which can help the universal gods protect the nature!”
Therefore, two brothers were separated by claiming endless war to each other. Sumur was on the bright side and Atundash choice the dark side for himself.
For many years, bright lord Sumur fought off the attacks of his wicked brother, who tried to damage the nature by all the possible means: he sat trees and bushes in fire, kidnapped weak people and enslaved them. Every time Sumur put out the fire. He returned his brothers to a kind land without any weapon and blood, but with the help of his wisdom. However, everything comes to the end. After a life of eighty-eight winter and eighty-seven hot summers the bright lord passed away and the Earth God took Sumur in his arms.
People mourned the lord for forty days and forty nights, only Atundash felt happiness because of his brother’s death. Because in the never-ending struggle between good and evil Lord Sumur managed to return all his friends animals and all his brothers-people to the lands where the living devoted itself to the nature and helped it. Animals left the lands of wicked lord and didn’t breed there. People were running away, even the leaves of the trees scattered to the winds in attempts to find freedom. So the lord of evil was left alone.
