🐢 The tortoise  and the Lazy King*

In the vibrant village of Umudim, nestled between rolling hills and whispering forests, lived a tortoise named Mbe. Known for his cunning and wit, Mbe was both admired and occasionally feared by the villagers.

One day, news spread that the neighboring kingdom's king had become exceedingly lazy. He no longer attended to his royal duties, preferring to lounge in his palace, indulging in feasts and naps. The kingdom was in disarray, and the people suffered.

Hearing of this, Mbe saw an opportunity. "Perhaps I can teach this lazy king a lesson," he mused.

*Mbe's Plan*

Mbe crafted a plan to awaken the king from his sloth. Disguising himself as a wise sage, he journeyed to the king's palace. Upon arrival, he requested an audience with the king, claiming to possess a secret to eternal leisure without consequence.

Intrigued, the king summoned Mbe. "Tell me, wise one, how can I enjoy endless rest without my kingdom falling apart?"

King Oba, awakened by the commotion, realized the chaos his absence had caused.

*Restoration and Reflection*

The king resumed his duties, thanking the animals for their loyalty. He appointed a council to assist in governance, ensuring a balance between work and rest.

Mbe, humbled, returned to his advisory role, this time with genuine intent to serve.

*The King's Awakening*

King Oba, once a monarch of leisure, began to embrace his duties with newfound vigor. He attended council meetings, listened to his subjects, and even took up gardening, much to the amusement of the palace staff.

However, old habits die hard. One afternoon, while lounging under a baobab tree, the king pondered, "Why not appoint someone to oversee the kingdom while I enjoy my siesta?"

Enter Mbe, the ever-cunning tortoise.

*Mbe's New Role*

Mbe proposed, "Your Majesty, appoint me as your royal advisor. I shall ensure the kingdom runs smoothly in your absence."

Delighted, the king agreed. Mbe, now in power, introduced new policies:

- *"Shell Tax"*: A levy on all animals with shells.

- *"Nap Time Regulations"*: Mandatory rest periods for all subjects, coinciding with Mbe's own naps.

- *"Royal Story Hour"*: Daily sessions where Mbe recounted tales of his greatness.

The kingdom was in uproar.
