Then the giant lay down to sleep and the foster son kept a lookout through the window.

It was not long before a big bear appeared away up the ravine, and at once the son knocked his foster father on the head with the small stone. The giant woke up, saw the bear, and laughed heartily, saying, “Yes, but that’s only a fox.?

Nevertheless he went out and killed it, and lay down to sleep again. The boy kept watch again, and it was not long before another animal appeared, and this time it was so big that it turned quite dark in the ravine. Once more the foster son took the small stone and hit the giant’s head with it. But by this time the giant had become sleepy, and as he did not wake up quickly enough, the boy seized the big stone and began to hammer away at his temples with it. Only then did he awake.

As he looked up towards the ravine, as light shiver passed through his great body; it was hunting ardour, and he said, “Yes, this time it’s a real bear,” and placing his foster son in the strap around his kamik, he ran out and killed the bear.

Once Inugpasugssuk’s foster son wanted to visit this family, but as they lived far away and he did not know the way, the giant gave him his magic wand, saying, “Every evening, when you lie down to sleep, you must stick this wand into the ground. When you wakeup, it will always have fallen over and will be pointing in the direction you have to go.?

And it happened as the giant had said, and the foster son safely reached his old village. But it is told that he had now grown so tall that he could no longer get into the houses of humans. So he soon went back to the giant, and since then nothing has been heard of him.
