English Translation

Once upon a time, there was a group of bees, they work hard to gather honey, because they knew that they will starve in winter if they don't work hard to gather honey.

However, one day, a bear came, the bear broke the hive and ate up all the honey the bees had gathered, and the bees ended up dying of hunger because of that.

English Translation

Tadashi Mitsuhara(三原忠信), the leader of Tokkijin, was a child of Tadayoshi Mitsuhara(三原忠義), he once travelled to the Hakara village in Reedland with his people and said "we want a piece of land to build a house, and we just need a piece of land as big as a piece of cloth." People of the Hakara village agreed to give him such a land.

Tadashi and his people then made the cloth into a thin thread, then he circled land with the thread, therefore he gained a lot of land, that's how Tokkijins started to settle in Reedland.
