[1] Hé-no lives in the cloud of the far west,[2] and has rainbow as his wife, and is accompanied by the eagles Keneu and Oshadagea.
[1] Keneu is a golden eagle and Oshadagea carries a lake of dew on its back, which it will sprinkle as rain after fire spirits attack the land.
[4] He wears a magic feather on his head to ward off evil, and has two assistants who carried no names, so they can serve Hé-no in secrecy.
[4] Hé-no was described as peaceful and benevolent,[2] being the enemy of witches and evil persons, and the friend of corn, beans and squashes.
Hé-no then slain the serpent at Lake Ontario with his flaming arrows shot from the sky, cut open its belly and resurrected Gunnodoyak, who was then taken to heaven.
