Yori gathered aid from the local villagers, while Tsugu worked hard, and within a week the work was done. The Seven Fortunes were pleased an appeared to the brothers, requesting the reward they wished. Foolishly Yori wished for them to shower their blessings upon the brothers, but before the Fortunes smote him, Tsugu pleaded for his brother.

The brothers never saw one another again. Fortunes & Winds, pp. 68-69
