In this tale there is an old man who keeps the sky, the stars, the
moon, and the light of the world in a set of boxes. Raven tricks him
into opening the boxes. Raven then steals the sun, and the world
around him becomes instantly transformed by the light. Plants and
animals awaken, and as Raven escapes through the hut's smoke hole, his
feathers become blackened—and they remain so to this day.
