As most Native American prose, a story based upon these tales would have a narrator so as to be orally told easily.
My favorite story to read from this section is the first: Unnatural Uncle. He killed his poor nephews, and no one did anything about it. This must have been accepted then if no one liked it but also did nothing about it. He spoke at the end that he was chief, so maybe that had something to do with it.
A story based upon this would be an obvious murder without mystery. Perhaps this time the wife would kill all girls, or maybe there would be some sort of explanation for the behavior of all involved.
