Hi. Although you have submitted a text, you have not submitted any questions related to it, which makes it impossible for me to give you an answer. However, I will try and help by showing you what this text means.

The text presented is part of an Iroquois legend about the formation of the world. According to the Iroquois, the daughter of the goddess Sky Woman gives birth to two twins. One of these twins was responsible for goodness and light and therefore, created all the good things we know about planet earth, such as nature, animals and other good elements. On the other hand, the other twin was responsible for representing evil and created the bad elements of the earth such as plagues and diseases that harm living beings. The two brothers try all the time to fight each other's creations and that's why there is an eternal struggle between light and darkness, order and chaos.
