Translated "the north wind and the sun" into Arangothek. :) I tried my best to stick to Feasterisms, but where it was impossible due to lack of information, I improvised or extrapolated from what already existed.
Order of texts: English -- Arangothek
--
The North Wind and the Sun were disputing which was the
stronger, when a traveler came along wrapped in a warm cloak.
They agreed that the one who first succeeded in making the
traveler take his cloak off should be considered stronger than the other.
Then the North Wind blew as hard as he could, but the more
he blew the more closely did the traveler fold his cloak around him;
and at last the North Wind gave up the attempt. Then the Sun
shined out warmly, and immediately the traveler took off his cloak.
And so the North Wind was obliged to confess that the Sun
was the stronger of the two.

Notes on new words and word usages:
*branissist is “traveler”, formed via parallel construction
with F.telixist
*sarmak is formed from sarm-ua (“to be warm”) and +k,
adjectivifier.
*sisordua is back-formed from “olsordua”, to disagree,
which is ol-sord-ua, “apart-stand-(verb)”. Sisordua is analogue to this, formed as
si(n)- “together” and sordua, stand.
*dasirua, “to take off (clothing)”, is formed from da- “off/away”
and sirua- “to put”.
Dasirethrua, to cause someone to remove clothing.
*suggua, to breathe, was used here as “to blow (as wind)”,
as there is no Feasterism for “blow”.
*goxetto, “proximity, nearness” is formed from gox-, a root
which seems to denote proximity (possibly from the similar root goss-, which
signifies royalty or prestige) and –etto, abstract nominalizer.
“nearby dog”, pex goxettok
*ben singrat, “ at the end” is here used as “finally”.
*rethesulua means “to relinquish, to give over”, but is
there used as “concede, to give up”.
*arrua, to try, with nominalizer suffix +(a)t.
*sarmax, warmly
*mekpirxa, “right now-ly”, immediately. Mekpir +xa
*"ben... ketsa..." In absence of a prescribed method of forming things like "the more, the merrier", I have done it this way. "at/during.... thus..."
*glirua, "to need" is used here instead of "was obliged to".
