All of our stories were to teach, and unlike your societies stories we did not give "the moral of" at the end - you don't learn that way.
This is the story of Looks-Twice:
There once was a man named Looks-Twice, he was not the bravest or the fastest or the best hunter in the tribe. He set out one morning to become the greatest hunter. He crossed a river to hunt for a great deer he saw the day before. He found its tracks and began following it deeper and deeper in to the forest. Around mid-day it started to rain and he was getting close. A little while later he spotted the deer and was able to down it with a single arrow. He shouted with glee at such a fine kill and the thought of sitting at the head of the fire tonight. He struggled to carry the deer through the mud and the rain got worse; and cold. Near dark he returned to the river, exhausted from his long trek with this large deer, and the river was flooded and impassable.
This is the story of Looks-Twice (and there is no "one answer" to this story).
