Myth - Elder Tree

In the beginning there was a big tree, and the world was baron wasteland around that one tree, three twigs fell and other than a new tree following, man came up from the ground and told the tree what to make so he could survive. The tree provided fruit, water and animals of all kind and vegetables the tree also taught him how to make fire. So man went on with no sun or moon or women. In about a year there were new trees, and the man asked the elder tree if he can make him a companion and something to tell him when to wake up and when to go back to sleep. So the next day he was woke by rays from the sun, and a figure unlike the animals. The tree named the figure, women; the man and the women got along just fine. When moonlight came and they wanted to stay up longer they wanted to build a fire. So they went on there ways to collect wood and she took a branch from the elder tree while he was asleep. They used it in the fire and when morning came, the elder tree was ash, and then came the ruling of man.
