In "why, you reckon? " the narrator and the other man do not hold edward for ransom. what was their reason? is their motivation for not holding edward for ransom internal or external?

In Why, You Reckon the narrator and the other man don't hold Edward for ransom because they just were interested in the money he had.

I would say the motivation for not doing so was external since they were hungry and taking the time for holding Edward would have taken a lot of time.

They were not interested in Edward so they did not hold him for ransom. They just wanted money and holding Edward would be very laborious and exhausting.

They decided not to keep Edwardo for internal reasons.

Explanation:

In "Why, You Reckon?" we learn that the narrator and the other man who are Esward’s executioners decide not to hold him for ransom. That's because these men had no interest in Edward, they were hungry, exhausted, feeling weak and lacking energy. They just wanted the money and keeping Edward would be consensus, exhausting and spend even more energy than these men had to continue. Hunger, lack of energy and the desire to avoid unnecessary work, were the internal reasons that influenced men not to keep Edward.

a myth is something that is told for many years that u go looking for and cant find and a truth is something that u can find in real life and can be story's of for example:

mermaid's and unicorns: u can't find them at all so they can be a myth cause u hear story's about them once u go looking for them u won't find them.

dinassours(can't spell): u hear story's about them at school by ur friends and one day ur dad takes u to a museum and u find fossils of them so u realize they are real and not fake.
