Stories and patakíes

Where they set a trap for Orunmila and Oshosi appeared

There was a town where Orunmila and abo ruled, but since Orunmila had all the clientele and abo did not live well, he wanted to get Orunmila out of there so he could stay alone.

When he could not do it through evil, he invented a trap so that Orunmila would fall into it and thus be able to achieve his wishes.

He made a hole in a path, threw in a lot of burning firewood, and then covered it with herbs and straw.

He went to Orunmila's house to look for him and told him that he had to go to the forest so they could talk, because there could not be two kings in the same place, and that one of the two was extra there.

He also told him that there they would fight to see which of the two would stay.

Orunmila accepted and told him that the next day he should wait for him in the forest.

Orunmila consulted himself and was told that there was a trap in the road, that he should make Ebbo so that the araye would win.

Orunmila did so and when he started to ask what to do with the objects of the Ebbo, Oggun took the Akuko, and he had to take everything else with the Ebbo.

Orunmila went to the appointment with everything he had made in the Ebbo; the appointment was far away, after walking for a long time he felt fatigued and sat down in the manigua.

That was where the trap was.

He put everything he had on the ground, in front of him.

The etu would not stay still, because the hens that were in they did not allow him the hole.

Orunmila observed it and began to consult.

Walk with the cane.

He saw the smoke come out and kept consulting, removed the grass and discovered the hole.

And in the trap everything he brought and the omi in the hole.

Abo was watching it hidden in the trap, and when he saw that Orunmila had discovered the trap, he wanted to turn around from behind, toward the hole.

But Oshosi, who was coming tired by that place and was hungry, threw himself at abo before he could push Orunmila.

Orunmila, when he felt noise behind him, turned and saw Oshosi.

With abo held by the legs and he understood abo's intention.

And he told Oshosi: bring him here.

And inside the trap leri opa and he they gave him fire, and Oshosi ate the body.

The man who competed with the horse

It was a person who was very badly off in every way and tired of his troubles.

He sat at the door of his Ile to think bad thoughts.

An old man passed by who was Babalu Aye and asked him what he would give him if he helped him get out of his troubles.

The person offered him his Ile.

At this time the Oba of that land organized a horse contest and whoever won would be the governor of that place.

When the person had made his Ebbo, he found out from the papers that he they brought her, she came out and presented herself to Yemaya.

Was told to enter the contest and to tell the Oba that he he would run on foot.

That is how the man did it, and when he told the Oba the situation, laughed, but anyway he admitted him into the contest.

When everyone went to look for the blue flag, he went out and went to Yemaya's house, this one presented him with an ekuekueye and told him: get on there because I am your iyare and I ayudare.

The okuni got on and as the ekuekueye went along it kept growing and when it had reached the size of an eshi he had already arrived at the place first than the others; the others had been left behind on the road as if broken down, because the okuni was going as if flying.

When the okuni took the spearhead and oroko and turned back toward where the Oba was, the ekuekueye was getting smaller and when he arrived beside Olokun's house, Yemaya was waiting for him; the okuni he thanked him and returned the ekuekueye, and offered him a good reward.

When the okuni handed the asia to the Oba, he became very happy to see that the smallest and on foot had won.

He put his crown on him.

When the okuni took possession of his office he took the old man by his side and Olokun was constantly going to his Ile.

In this way the state of tranquility and prosperity came to him.

In this path Yemaya, Olokun or Babalu Aye were crowned Osha.
