However, on my recent perusal, I note that in the brief tale that Miska tells to Viktor (about two princes), he mentions one who was so clever that he learned the language of the birds and the beasts, and could make the River run backward, and could make the stars come out during the day (force an eclipse?). It seems possible that this prince had some connection to Mozes or Rozsa or both - perhaps he was Mozes, or their son after they wed? Or perhaps he was the one who did the tricks originally, as a favor for his sister so she could marry Mozes, who was otherwise nothing special? Who can say?
