Long ago there was a físh called Tarki!  Tarki was unhappy for all the fish in the lake would tease him because he was ugly. No other físh would talk to Tarki or be his friend so one day he decided to leave the lake.When Tarki tried to leave the lake he couldn't because there was no water in the rivers to escape, the lake was also drying up. One day Tarki went to the edge of the lake and demanded to speak with the gods of the sky and ask why it hasn’t rained in so long. The Rainbow, Lightning and Rain Gods all agreed to meet on the moon with Tarki  to discuss his problems. After a long discussion they decided that Tarki was right and immediately let rain fall to the land. The Rainbow god let down his golden yellow ribbon for Tarki to slide back down into the lake, and as this happened a miracle transformation occurred. As Tarki slid down the ribbon his belly turned a golden yellow and from that day Tarki was the most popular físh in the lake. He is now called THAGAAY the físh with the yellow belly.
