The hurricane children are characters from Talamancan mythology of the Bribri and Cabécar, indigenous peoples of the southern Caribbean part of Costa Rica.
The four hurricane children are the following: The stories tell that one day Itsö ate Ágata, Talá Yakela's wife, whom he devoured little by little.
One day later Talá Yakela returns home, and upon seeing what happened, he patiently collected fibers from tree bark and medicinal leaves.
Sibö needed the help of a brave, strong, responsible person with authority to be a leader who made decisions and who was in charge of ruling on earth; So he chose Talá Yakela, father of the Hurricane Children.
They listened to multiple stories of their uncle Olóbasá, who told in each of them the importance of staying together in the house of not going out at night, loving, caring and protecting the works of Sibö.
Due to their great curiosity, the Hurricane Children escape from their home to know the world; This is why his mother searches for them for a long time without any success and decides to continue with his work.
The children asked their mother's skeleton about what happened, to which the voice answered meticulously that the person who killed her is Sakabiali, the lady of the mountain, who made her run behind a deer through all the paths, hillsides and mountains, up and down, barking like a dog all day until sunset, until in a well-squeezed passage she waited for her and hit her with a piece of stick and then sucked all her blood and ate all her flesh.
Once the children leave, they find their uncle again, Lord Sun and he rebukes them for their actions and advises them to learn to live together and practice good deeds; To obey the rules of the family and not destroy.
