a house in the woods, where an ogress lives. The ogress forces the girl to do three chores for her, under penalty of being devoured. The first task is to sweep and unsweep the house. A youth appears to the girl and offers his help in return for a kiss. The girl declines the offer, but he helps her anyway: she is to sweep the house and leave some heapings in every room. The youth also advises her that, when the witch suspects the girl was helped by the ogress's son Kakothanatos, the girl is to deny any help from Kalothanatos. The next tasks are to cook meat and leave it uncooked, and to fill a mattress with feathers from the sea. To fill the mattress, the youth tells her to summon all birds by shouting that their μαργιροντάκις is dead. (Paton also wrote that in a retelling, the same informant added a fourth task: to separate a heap of cereal grains, which the girl does by summoning the birds again). Lastly, the ogress sends the girl to her sister's house to get the toumpána troumána and the khartoproumvána. The eagle appears to her, tells her he is the son of the ogress, and advises her: she is to get to the ogress's sister's house, get a box from behind the staircase, and escape with it. The girl follows the instructions but opens the box and little devils escape. The eagle appears again and summons the devils back to the box with a whistle. At the end of the tale, the eagle says the ogress will make her choose a thing from the house, and she is to choose a dirty jackdaw (which is the eagle, in a new shape). The girl takes the jackdaw with her and it transforms into a prince. In a variant collected by Greek folklorist with the title Ο χρυσαετός του κόσμου ("The Golden Eagle of the World"), a married couple lives a happy life, until the wife is pressed by her neighbours to ask her husband's name. He says it is "Μαυροτάρταρο της Γης, το Χρυσαετό του Κόσμου" ('Black Tartaro of the Earth, the Golden Eagle of the World'). He vanishes overnight and the wife goes looking for him. She reaches his mother's (who is a dragon) house and is taken as a maid. The dragon forces the wife to sweep and not sweep
