The fiercest warriors would be lying in ambush for his two sons at the falls, where Flying Star and Clam always went to spear Eel.

If Hess had failed to tell his father of Flying Star's fateful dream, even now they would both be suffering torture at the hands of the foe.

As it was, the old man and his brave daughter would attack the village by night, while the enemy slept and dreamed of battle and war.

In addition to a great deal of extinct species, the extant elopomorphs include the tarpons, tenponders, and ladyfish of Elopiformes, which have slender, streamlined bodies that allow them to move efficiently through the water and capture their prey.

There are also the bonefishes of order Albuliformes, often noted for their silver-colored bodies and deeply forked tails, the deep-sea spiny eels of Notacanthiformes, and the true eels of Anguilliformes.

The true eels are the most diverse clade of the superorder Elopomorpha.

Note that this order includes the true eels only, such as the slender giant moray, European conger, garden eels, pelican eels, gulpers, American eels, Japanese eels, and snake eels.
